Hi all. Totaly neewbee in linux so please be gentle... Has set up a server to host some customers and some of my own. Shared hosting. http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-centos-5.6-x86_64-ispconfig-2 Anyway I've got to play until I come to WordPress when I try to install some plugins or themes it asks for the FTP user and pass. I give it but it still does not work, something else is that I will, if possible, preferably be free of having to do this on all sides. Can you get rid of it?
Did you create an FTP account for that web site on the "User & Email" tab? Did you check FTP for that web site? Does your username have the form web1_someuser? It is possible that you mix this up with ISPConfig users who can log into ISPConfig only, but not use FTP.
Yes i did make an FTP account, i used it with filezilla no problems there. But when i uses it in wordpress its a nogo... Is there a way to stop wordpress needing ftp user login? I have a windows 2008 r2 server running several wedsites with wordpress and they do not ask for FTP user and pass..
Hi cpq, try this http://tech.uponinter.net/server-2/wordpress-need-password-when-installing-plugins.html
Hi newbielinx. Thanks for the adwise, i tryed it and i can´t get it to work... No errors just notthing, have made a reboot just i case. (old windows habbit)
apache, and yes im using apache. Could it be that i have done some thing wrong with the command provited by you?
I got that on twitter and i use the same way just like described there.. Never asked ftp when installing plugins, themes or edit .htaccess manually which means it worked on me. Try using then restart apache
i get this: [root@node1 ~]# chgrp -fR -apache /var/www/html chgrp: invalid option -- a Try `chgrp --help' for more information.
Hi. Thanks for your answers Got it working, it wass a setting in the hosting panel.... dogh stupid me... :-(
