Hi there,
This usually happens when the user that the Apache service runs as does not have write access to the
wp-content
folder.You need to make sure that the user has the write access so that you could upload plugins via your WordPress admin area.
To find the user you could run:
Usually it should be
www-data
by default.Then set the ownership fo the files and directories for your WordPress installation accordingly:
In case that your WordPress installation is not at
/var/www/html
make sure to adjust this to match the correct path.Regards, Bobby
