WHM and Wordpress - wordpress

First of all sorry for my bad English but isnt my first language.
I own a dedicated server that uses Whm. I installed approximately 30 wordpress in accounts. Suddenly i cant upgrade wordpress via Whm for users. Error message is:
Site Software cPanel::Blogs::WordPress
This is a cPanel packaged module. (v1.04)
Website WordPress
Requires MySQL 5 or newer.
Could not prepare working directory: No such file or directory
I used also wpremote.com application but again i am not able to upgrade wordpress. How can i disable wordpress update via Whm and to update them via wordpress administration?

You need to have MySQL v5.x or higher. In WHM, search "MySQL" or under the Software list, look for "MySQL/MariaDB Upgrade". Once that page is open, select the version you need to upgrade to, hit Next, and this will guide you through the installation.

This is issue if you install wordpress using WHM or Cpanel. When you install wordpress using WHM/ Cpanel it install default plugin in your wordpress. now when you want to update wordpress version from cpanel this plugin will work as communicator between cpanel/WHM but problem is this plugin will not work if you updated your default theme.
solution simply deactivate your cpanel plugin in your wordpress plugin management and update wordpress setup from your site.

Unable to find Wordpress toolkit in cPanel. Wordpress Manager is deprecated

I am new to wordpress and loged in to my cPanel account and getting the message.
After research I found that I have to upgrade to wordpress toolkit.
But, Wordpress toolkit is not showing anywhere on cPanel. I would login to Wordpress admin dashboard.
thelearningcenter.pk/wp-login.php
Any idea how to do that. I also change the wordpress admin password but still not able to login. Or my hosting company in charge to upgrade? Or I have to find myself?
Any suggestion or recommendation or step by step reference doc/links from you will be appreciated.
First, take a full backup on your hosting. Re-download Wordpress after backup. After accessing your server with FTP, upload the existing wp.config.php and wp-content directory into the newly downloaded wordpress. In this way, you can reload the core modules of Wordpress without damaging the content of your website.
Use the instant full backup you have to go back in case of any problem.
I hope it solves your problem.
From here we can read:
Though still available as an option, the WordPress Manager interface
is deprecated. Customers can now use WordPress Toolkit to install and
manage WordPress. The WordPress Manager interface (cPanel >> Home >>
Applications >> WordPress Manager) allows you to install and manage
new or existing WordPress® sites within your cPanel interface.
In the order, I would:
check if you can install the WordPress Toolkit from the WHM Marketplace
if you have SSH access, install it using the manual way
If it's not installed, and you cannot install it, because no Marketplace or manual installation is possible: contact your host.
If you installed yourself Cpanel on your server, then you should have required access to upgrade it or its dependencies.

Wordpress on IIS - Plugins were successfully installed but they don't show

I have installed WordPress on IIS 8.5 (Windows server 2012 R2) by installing PHP and MySQL without any problem. The WordPress website works normally and plugins (like any kind of sliders) installed with no error. but the installed plugin doesn't show on WordPress website.
-PHP have set on PHP Manager.
-Directory Browsing is enable.
-Full Permission granted on folders to : IUSR, IIS_IUSRS, windows current user.
-Various plugins have been tested: MetaSlider, LayerSlider, MasterSlider, NextGenGallery and so on.
as you said that "MetaSlider, LayerSlider, MasterSlider, NextGenGallery" these plugins are not working. I made a test with the MetaSlider plugin.
first thing you need to change in WordPress permalink setting.
make sure you use this setting in permalink:
then select the plugins and click on add new and installed the MetaSlider plugin.
and active that plugin.
add slide show using that and create a new page and added the slideshow.
after doing this publish the site and check the page by using preview.
if you still face some problem than clear the cache and the history of the browser and try to access the page again.

Launching wordpress site w/out wordpress acccount?

I apologize in advanced if this is too simple of a question; but,
I know you can install wordpress locally, and that hosting servers may have wordpress available. Do you need a wordpress account at wordpress.com to launch a wordpress website on a host other than wordpress.com?
If so, is it possible to install plugins like woocommerce as well?
You dont need a wordpress.com account and yes, you can install the addons.

Which is the recommended method to transfer a wordpress site to wordpress Multisite?

I want to create a Wordpress site on my local server and then transfer it into another server that runs a WordPress multisite installation.
Which way is safer to follow:
a) install a WordPress single installation in my local server and after development export it and import it to the WordPress MU which already has a blank site and the theme and plugins installed
b) install a WordPress MU installation in my local server and after development export the specific site and import it to WordPress MU which already has a blank site and the theme and plugins installed
Is any of the above recommended or both are the same?
P.S: the requirements say that WP version has to be 3.6.1
Go with Option B as that's the best way to avoid any errors.
