  • Hi,

    just the domain has expired or the hosting as well? Are you sure that the path is still the same?If you have setup your new hosting with a different username this can be the problem. Check even the permission of the wp-content folder

    Hi Democle
    Yeas only the domain was expired, I don’t change hosting
    not sure about the path! who to do it?

    the permission of the wp-content folder is 777 and I try 755 still same error

    Hey there,

    Try adding “define(‘FS_METHOD’, ‘direct’); “ to your wp-config.php, without double quotes. Hope it helps.
