Problem installing plugin

  • I just installed WordPress. I tried to delete the Hello Dolly plugin and the next screen asks me for my FTP information. I’ve never seen that before. Why would I need to do that?

    Also … I tried to install a plugin by uploading it. The upload is very slow, slower than normal, and then I get the following message:

    “Unable to create directory /home/bcmeet/public_html/wp-content/uploads/2012/04. Is its parent directory writable by the server?”

    I’ve never seen this before either. I’ve never had to change permissions after installing WordPress. Why am I getting this message and how do I fix this? Is this something to do with my server?

    Thank you,
    Ben
