I set up a FTP-User for upgrading. The user’s root dir is my wordpress-installation. (Meaning: a FTP-browser will display index.php, wp-config.php and so on directly under / )
Still neither the automatic upgrade nor the plugin install works for me.
Supplemental: Just out of curiosity, i chomdded all my files to 777 – didn’t change a thing. i also tried various other users with different root-dirs – no change either. Is there any logfile or verbosity-option i could turn on to run down to problem?
(this was done using 2.7 final)
