title: Plug-in won't update on Google App engine Dev server for Wordpress? (hangs)
body: <p>I now have Wordpress running on a local GAE Dev server. The local copy reached out to the mother ship and seems to want to update a few things.</p>
  
  <p>I am running on Ubuntu 14.04
  WordPress 3.8.1 running Twenty Fourteen theme.
  It seems that WP want to update to 3.91
  You have version 1.0 installed. Update to 1.2. View version 1.2 details.
  You have version 1.3 installed. Update to 1.4. View version 1.4 details.
  and some theme updates.. </p>
  
  <p>I tried to just update the plug-ins and it just seems to hang, I tried both plugins (batcache manager and GAE) and then only selecting the GAE plug in, both attempts gave me the message that the update was beginning, wait.. but even after extended time,, no progress....</p>
  
  <p>I had downloaded the zip version of the GAE WP from Github Do I need to clone the repo instead?? </p>
  
  <p>Or.. should I try to run the upgrade to 3.9.1 on the dev server?</p>
  
  <p>Should the auto update function on the local dev server? I assume so since it does not seem that it can be done on the production GAE?</p>
