 * Okay. It’s a plugin that set a wrong path. Sorry for the unnecessary thread :-/

 * I had to add a line in the .htaccess-file:
 * **AddHandler php5-cgi .php**
 * But this way may only work with my hoster. I don’t know if you can change your
   PHP version with this solution too.
 * But I think you can ask your hoster if they can change the PHP version for you
   🙂

 * I solved it!
    A friend of mine hadn’t this issue at the same hoster. So we compared
   our settings and find a difference: He uses PHP5, I used PHP4.
 * I changed it to PHP5 – et voilá … no error.
 * Change your PHP to version 5! (works for me…)
 * Thanks for your help guys, anyway 😉

 * When I use “localhost” for the ftp server, WP throw the same error message nevertheles.
   And fill the hostname-input with the following value:
 * > localhost://domain.com/dir
 * And what do you mean with
    “It’s unable to connect back to itself. Could also
   be the network configuration at your host.”
 * It’s a kind of selfprotection, set up by my hoster, with no chance to change 
   that?
