 * Hi, I made the necessary permissions changes. But now WordPress can’t upload 
   files and make changes.
 * I think I’ve tracked it down to a file ownership problem. Could anybody provide
   some troubleshooting for this? I’ve found some other how-tos that involve the
   command line on my server that haven’t been successful.

 * Even after making those changes my site still appears to be offline/unavailable.

 * If I change the folder permissions to 766 from 644 it seems to open. Do I not“
   own” the permissions to the files/directories then?

   I get the error.
