Answers.Text: Sounds like something was just plain corrupted (or missing) in the `app` folder. Replacing the entire folder is actually a legitimate solution, there are really no downsides. It's basically the same as if you had performed a manual update.

  If [username_3's way](https://craftcms.stackexchange.com/a/1229/177) doesn't work, it could also be possible that while updating something got messed up in the `/craft/storage/runtime/` directory. Try deleting it, and check again.
