No plugin updates after moving wp-config.php above root map

  • After moving wp-config.php to a higher map then the root I get this error message when an update is started of a plugin.

    Everything is working properly on the site only updates generates now errors.

    How can I solve this so updating still runs without errors and without to move “wp-config.php” to root map back?

    I have also tried with the “default” root wp-config.php installed. Then it runs as normal.
    But for security I prefer running it above the root.

    ABSPATH = /home/debxxx/domains/domain.com/public_html/aff/ and that is the root of the domain. So this is good. I have echo both wp_config.php files:
    1: the default root (home/debxxx/domain.com/public_html/aff/)
    2: the file in the security map home/debxxx/security/. Both with same result. ABSPATH = correct

      Warning: unlink(/home/debxxx/security/domain/wp-content/uploads/updraftplus.1.12.25-YS3ytg.tmp): No such file or directory in /home/deb9xxx/domains/domain.com/public_html/wp-admin/includes/file.php on line 505

    An error occurred while updating UpdraftPlus - Backup/Restore: Download failed. Destination directory for file streaming does not exist or is not writable.

    Is there nobody of the scene who recognize this and have a solution?
    It would be great. Meanwhile I have set wp-config.php back to the root of the site.
