Wordpress plugin install failed


I'm moving a Wordpress blog to a new server. When I tried to install the plugin, in this case wp-db-backup.zip, this error appeared:

Unpacking the package…

Installing the plugin…

Could not create directory. /var/www/html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wp-db-backup/

Plugin install failed.

How to rectify this? This also happened with the wordpress importer plugin.
