Package: wordpress Version: 5.0.12+dfsg1-0+deb10u1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Installed WordPress on a new host
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I created a new site with setup-mysql
* What was the outcome of this action?
After some Apache2 tweaking, I got stuff working but installing plugins
or themes failed with a question to provide ftp credentials. As the host
I am migrating away from didn't need that I tried to achieve the same.
It took me quite some time to find out that I manually changed
/etc/wordpress/config-<domain>.php to include
`define('FS_METHOD', 'direct');`
After doing the same on the new host, installing plugin and themes works.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
As this file is generated by setup-mysql, it could/should write this
line too, probablye with comments, maybe commented out.
I looked at
https://sources.debian.org/src/wordpress/5.7.1+dfsg1-2/debian/setup-mysql/
to see if the current version is better, but it doesn't seem to add it.
Paul
