    Hello,
    I used below command to update WordPress plug-ins:
    # /usr/local/bin/wp plugin update --all --path=/var/www/wordpress
    But it show me below error:

    Warning: chmod() has been disabled for security reasons in /var/www/wordpress/wp-admin/includes/class-wp-filesystem-direct.php on line 173

    I opened “wp-config.php” file and added below line to it:
    define('FS_METHOD','direct');
    But problem not solved.
    How can I solve it?

    Thank you.

# see also: http://ir.php.net/features.safe-mode
disable_classes         =
session.name                     = myPHPSESSID
session.auto_start               = Off
session.use_trans_sid            = 0

    Is it related to these changes?

    Thank you.

    I found the solution. It was because of “chmode()” and “mkdir” in the disable_functions in the “php.ini” file.
