In reply to: [BackUpWordPress] BackUpWordPress – Backups Directory Can't Be CreatedTried that – in several variants. Still does not work.
Web server runs as www-data.
…/wp-content$ ls -alp
total 32
drwxrwxrwx 7 www-data www-data 4096 Feb 14 09:45 ./
drwxr-sr-x 15 xxxxxxx hosting 4096 Jan 31 10:48 ../
drwxrwsrwx 2 www-data www-data 4096 Feb 14 09:45 backups/
-rw-r–r– 1 xxxxxxx hosting 30 Apr 19 2011 index.phpbackups exists and is owned by the server and world writeable.
I still get “BackUpWordPress is almost ready. The backups directory can’t be created because your wp-content directory isn’t writable, run chown www-data:www-data / or chmod 777 / or create the folder yourself.”
Done all three of them and still cannot get anywhere.

In reply to: [BackUpWordPress] BackUpWordPress – Backups Directory Can't Be CreatedThanks, but I had already tried that without success.
I now deleted the whole backupwordpress tree and installed it again from scratch. Same result (except the message now says run chown server:server / or chmod 777 / ). For obvious reasons I am not prepared to make my whole site owned by the server or world writeable.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [BackUpWordPress] BackUpWordPress – Backups Directory Can't Be CreatedI have a similar problem. I am using the same server but had to change the database name. It was XXXX_01 which I saved and then reloaded into XXXX_02. The dump does not seem to contain XXXX_01 so I simply changed the wp-config.php entry for database. I have been unable to get rid of the error message despite the backups directory existing and being world writeable.
Where to now?

In reply to: Cannot view plugins from dashboardThanks for the response. I would like to do the first suggestion, but cannot operate on the plugins as I cannot list them. How can I deactivate them if I cannot list them?
I will try the other suggestions.
