I posted this to the WordPress forums a few days ago with no response, so I'm trying here.
I have Fedora 21 running on a local box with a Workstation install (plus a bunch of packages I installed via yum manually) and am now on my local blog update. I am trying to either do a one click upgrade of WordPress or a new plugin install and consistently get the following error:
Code:
Could not copy file. akismet/wrapper.php
The file name is never the same.
For example, here's what I get if I rerun the code:
Could not copy file.
Code:
akismet/_inc/img/logo-full-2x.png
I realize the files are being stored to upgrade/akismet.tmp (or whatever other folder there is). The files are being created to that folder.
I set the permissions to 777 there. Heck, I got so desperate that I set the permissions of the ENTIRE WordPress directory recursively to 777. And I still got that error.
My wp-config file has FTP declared properly. I also changed FS_METHOD per other WordPress forum suggestions. ftpsockets doesn't work at all for me (it won't connect to the ftp), and direct/ftpext both connect but fail in the way I described earlier.
I see no errors anywhere; WP debug was on and no errors were thrown. Nothing is in Apache's error_log etiher.
I have full access to this server. If I have to change some variable in php.ini or whatever, I am open to doing so. php.ini is still running its default values, so there's a lot that could be done there. I just need to figure out what it is that I need to do, because I pored through all similar reports of this issue and it was either a permissions issue or some sort of FS_METHOD issue and neither is the case for me.
Anyone know what this could be or how to find out more info?
