I just did a fresh install and installing plugins as well as uploading files works fine. Could you paste the output of the following:

```nohighlight
ls -Al /var/www/wordpress/wp-content/

```

Since my WordPress folder appears on the www-data user, I cannot send files via FTP connection with the root or dietpi user. “permission denied” what can I do?

It doesn’t make sense to post the very same question into different very old topics. Create a new one
