Hey everyone,
I have a media temple DV base server (just got it) and I am having problems with the following issues:
1.) Auto Plugin Updater will not update - asks for ftp info
2.) Flash uploader doesn't work
3.) When I delete a file in the media library through the admin - it doesn't erase it off the server.
4.) Plugin updater also isn't working.
WordPress also wasn't able to create an htaccess file - I had to do this manually. I've had to change file permissions to get this to work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

I also am trying to put wordpress on my DV base with media temple. Just signed up today. *BANGS HEAD ON WALL* Having problems with the exact same things so far.
chmod of .htaccess fixed that problem.
this is not a good solution but if you do the following command on your upload folder:
chmod 767 -R uploads
you will be able to use the uploads, however this makes it world writeable which is scary. I have not got the plugins to work yet. If anyone has any advice/fixes let me know as well.

Hi. It might be a good idea to also cross-post this on the (mt) Users Forums, for help from other (dv) users.
(mt) Dedicated-Virtual User Forums →

Did anyone find a solution to this problem on the (dv)? I have searched (mt)'s forum and there is nothing there on the topic.
I also have a base dv server with them and have noticed that contact form plugins do not work as well (at least for me).

Found a fix for the ftp password prompt issue...Credit goes to ufgcorp on the MT forums.
1. open wp-config.php
2. Add the following and edit with your ftp info
// ** FTP SETTINGS FOR AUTO-UPDATE ** //
define('FTP_HOST', 'localhost');
define('FTP_USER', 'YOUR-FTP-USERNAME');
define('FTP_PASS', 'YOUR-FTP-PASSWORD');
