Lets use this post to document fixes, suggestions, etc for using the webtrees update process. Let me kick it off with this one:
Upgrading with multiple trees;
There was a bug in versions prior to 1.7.2 that caused the automatic upgrade process to fail if you have multiple trees issuing an error like /app/Tree.php:596 Exception("Statement::execute() called twice.")
You have two options; 1) is to do a manual upgrade or 2) is to patch app/Tree.php as documented in the link below.

Good point Rob: An other tip when upgrading to a newer version, you may be given the option to DISABLE any add-ons and extra themes. Sometimes this works, and sometimes not. If you find you get a BLANK PAGE for your "Module Administration," you will need to DELETE the older add-ons & themes. Then re-install the newer version add-ons one at a time.

Here we go again - the same problem, the same solution, but no one listens.
This needs to be made a "sticky."

I heard it, after I fall in both traps.
I would suggest a link to a recent upgrade-issues-readme nearby the upgrade button.
Thanks for the great software!
