Unable to locate WordPress content directory (wp-content).

The permissions to read wp-content

The webserver needs write access

this is a parent directory:
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Feb 13 13:06 html/

and this this wp directory:
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Feb 13 13:06 ./
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Feb 8 23:06 ../

although wp-content has all the permissions I still get this message:
‘Unable to locate WordPress content directory (wp-content).’

check your wp-config.php hasn’t specified a different location e.g.

define( 'WP_CONTENT_DIR', $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/blog/wp-content' );
define( 'WP_CONTENT_URL', 'https://example/blog/wp-content');
define( 'WP_PLUGIN_DIR', $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/blog/wp-content/plugins' );
define( 'WP_PLUGIN_URL', 'https://example/blog/wp-content/plugins');

none of those lines are in my wp-config.php

Ubuntu Apache server need them set to www-data:www-data.
CentOS / Redhat server I believe is apache:apache

Nobody:Nogroup is default. You use chown -R xxxx:xxxx /var/www/<your site>. They are set from the ssh session to your server.

Thank you! That solved the problem.
