I am currently using wordpress 4.4 I set up background updates but when I execute them it says 'Something went wrong. Unable to locate WordPress Root directory.'
I set my FTP details like that:
When I connect to this server using this login details in a normal ftp client, it works fine. I am able to locate the wordpress directory then.
I also was unable to enable debug logs. I set
But in wp-content the logfile is missing debug.log. I thought it would depend on the file permissions:
But those are set correctly, as I can see that the webserver which runs wordpress is in the group www-data.
So I have two questions:
Additional info:

define('FTP_USER', 'user');

- Why is wordpress unable to locate the root directory?
- Why does wordpress not create the logfile?
