The only thing is, I have other sites updating to Joomla 2.5.8 from 2.5.7 just fine from our same server using admin tools. Also, when I go to Extension Manager --> Update it also says "There are no updates available at the moment. Please check again later." on the site in question.

So, what should I do?

I changed the temp directory, and it works now. Nothing else was working.

Thanks for the info Nick!

Admin Tools, just like the Joomla! updater itself*, caches the update information for a few hours. If a new Joomla! release is published in the meantime it doesn't "see" it. You can click the "Joomla! Core Up to date" icon and then click the refresh button. This will forcibly fetch the update information from joomlacode.org and it will now "see" the available update.

* Actually, the core Joomla! update is based on Admin Tools' update since Joomla! 2.5.1. There are a few slight changes, mainly regarding the way it fetches the update information, but the bulk of it is the same.
