WordPress update with FileZilla 3.1.5.1 sub-folders missing

My WordPress update to Version 2.6.5 with FileZilla client 3.1.5.1 failed somehow because quite a lot sub-folders in wp-includes did not transfer.

This made the visual editor disappear or not working.

Clearing the Cache of Firefox doesn’t elp in that case of course.

I started comparing deep sub-folders manually and transfering the files with folders by ftp one by one.

Finally, if you have more than one site to maintain, that’s to much!

I found a recent post in Filezilla Forum saying:

it’s a bug with 3.1.5.1 – try switching to a nightly until next release.

nightly builts you find here: http://filezilla-project.org/nightly.php

That solved my problem by using i586-mingw32msvc for my windows machine. Now I can transfer the wp-includes folder with all sub-folders to the server.

The missing sub-folders wp-includes/ js/ tinymce/ plugins/ wpeditimage and also crop, jquery, scriptaculous, swfupload and thickbox with their subfolders are now in place and WordPress is working as before!
