I think I had the same problem on one site.

open the dispatcher.php and try to remove the line that looks like this: packages/events.php

not sure about the exact name, but this caused a blank screen and I didn't fix the problem yet

First, back up your database.

Then go tohttp://www.orbstudio.net/index.php/tools/required/upgrade...

I say back up your database, because that might not fix your site an may corrupt your existing DB

in dispatcher.php i removed the line that referred to 'events and packages' as detailed above.... i cant remember the exact syntax

ijessup has a different error to myself.. after i removed the 1 line of code the upgrade worked perfectly.

I looked in the file and the closest to what you guys describe is this line:

## Package events
//require(dirname(__FILE__) . '/startup/packages.php');

as you see I commented it out, and it gave me a different error message. I cannot use the upgrade link, try it yourself I have backed up the database.

I will have a look tonight at the actual line that you have to delete

I put back the 5.2.1 files to keep my site and business running...maybe when the update process is fixed I can try again.

I removed the following code (line 106) and the upgrade worked fine

## Package events
   require(dirname(__FILE__) . '/startup/packages.php');


after i upgraded i put the line of code back into the website because i dont know what it does...
