wordpress ask me the "FTP Account" !!

Did you set up your database properly? I’ve never seen this message in wordpress before.

Hello josh ..
Everything is fine .. I think that problem is in the writing in the permit files wordpress .. But I do not know Where specific problem..!

Hi 3zizov I’ve seen this on a few sites before, you should be able to enter in your ftp details,, what do you use to upload files to your server? FTP or SSH? have you tried using SFTP?

Hello jghazally .. I used FTP – and sometimes used cpanel to upload my files ..

3zizov,

It’s usually a file/directory permission problem. Can you you use FTP to connect to your blog and upload files to the same directories? I mean to the same host name as your blog.

Hello jan .. Yes I can do that – the problem only in the automated installation through the Control Panel

Hi 3zizov,

I had the same problem when my FTP account was directed in the website root of the file system. Strange enough, when I changed my FTP account to not direct in the wwwroot but one level above, it did not give me the error “could not locate wp-content” anymore.

Sorry, this next one was answered by you already but I want to make sure: when you put in the FTP credentials for your account for retrieving a plugin or theme, it fails and you are not able to retrieve the file via the WordPress page?

If yes it fails, you may want to speak to your hosting company and see if the error logs on the web server or FTP process shows what the problem is.

If no it works (…must work on my language skills…) then the web server runs as a different userid than yours and can’t write to the directories.

I had the same problem when my FTP account was directed in the website root of the file system.

That would do it. If WordPress was looking for wp-content and it really was in wwwroot/wp-content then it would probably get very confused and not work.

I tried updating the latest version”3.3″ But did not happen anything also ??

According to the sidebar you’re on version 3.0.5. You’ll (probably) need to manually upgrade to 3.1, then 3.2 before going to 3.3.

Make sure you have a good database and file backup and know how to restore them before you try a manual upgrade.

I Used all the means and methods ,,,, all not work
i’m so sad ??
