Install wordpress theme on mu linode
Hi guys,
I install wordpress on my Linode. I grant permission 777 on the installation.
But, when I try to install a theme, I config the ftp credentials and i see the following error:
Failed to connect to FTP Server XXX.XXX.XXX.XX:22
I connect by FTP with WinSCP and the same credentials I use to Wordpress theme installation.
Can you help me please?

It looks like you can install the theme in a different way if you change a Wordpress setting. If you add the following line to your wp-config.php file it should work for you:
define('FS_METHOD', 'direct');
Once you've added it, if you still can't install the theme, try restarting Apache with:
service apache2 restart
or
service httpd restart
