Update J3.6.0 to J3.6.1 via Live Update
If you uninstalled beez3 (like I did on several sites), or you have forbidden writing index.php in beez3 folder, you get message in popup:
"ERROR:
Could not open /my_path/templates/beez3/index.php for writing."
Update progres seen in background is stuck at 0, also when you click ok on popup:
"Updating your Joomla files. Please wait ...
Percent complete 0.0
Bytes read 0
Bytes extracted 0
Files extracted"
Joomla 3.6.0. IS NOT updated to 3.6.1.
As seen in System Information:
Joomla! Version Joomla! 3.6.1 Stable [ Noether ] 2-August-2016 22:59 GMT
So, it IS updated, though I never saw it is happening in Joomla Update component, so I am not informed well there.
Now it's not clear to me if all files were written correctly.

Hi Georgios,
no, it would not reflect actual situation: update is DONE, but as user I am not sure if it passed. Notification was bad: progress bar hangs at 0, but when you go to System Info you see that it passed. Joomla update component never says 100% after I click OK in modal which informs me about beez3. It hangs at 0, but actually update is going smooth in "background" obviously.
I use Joomla for more than decade now, but someone less experienced will not check all I do. He/she expects info in this screen. At least in my mind.
Thank you!
Ok then:
Can not complete upgrade to new Joomla version if beez3 has been uninstalled
Maybe: "J3.6.0 to J3.6.1 - Upgrade complete, but progress hangs at 0"
Your proposal sound more like it, too, since I have to be informed by notification at the end. But still - upgrade IS COMPLETE, all files are in place, I just did not get notification, progress hangs at 0!
It describes it closer.
You decide, I don't mind at all, you have much much more experience with titling these issues :)
Thank you very much once again.
But still - upgrade IS COMPLETE, all files are in place
Then since you are upgraded from J3.6.0 and not from an earlier version,
you are good,
just go to Extensions / Manager / "Database" and click "Fix"
[EDIT]
You decide, I don't mind at all, you have much much more experience with titling these issues :)
nothing is my decision
i do not decide anything, i am just a user here, about title of issues, having an issue tracker with issues that maintainers need to open the issue and read a few messages before they understand what is happening is

All clear
I'll stick then to my proposed title, since it explains it more clearly. I changed it now.
I did everything, upgrade is complete, I had no problem, apart from not being notified properly that it actually happened.
Common user will be confused. I consider myself advanced one. At the end, my case might not be single one when this happens (including beez3 template, I mean, maybe it hangs on other permissions, missing files, extensions etc...) Progress should either go to 100% and say "It's done" or if it fails or hangs at some point - upgrade is not done - and it's not done for real! Being at 0 and when I check version it says it's done - it's confuzing! That's the problem here. Again - I solved it, for me it's clear what happens, but I doubt common user will know what's the real status of upgrade.
_Unable to replicate_
I did this:
Strange... anyway, now that 3.6.2 is out, I get message again, progress bar hangs at some point, but Joomla is NOT updated. That's exactly what I expect, since it never got to 100%. All settled with 3.6.2 obviously.
Thanks!
