Errors when updating plugin through the WordPress plugin repository

Problem solved. I was doing something dumb when I was testing the update process – uploading a zipped version of an earlier tagged release of the plugin, so that the tag ‘1.2.3’ was being appended to the file name. When I remove the tag from the file name, everything works like it should.

Programming is hard sometimes.
