W3 total cache error

Posted on April 17, 2014

I have installed wordpress using this guide https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-wordpress-with-nginx-on-ubuntu-12-04

Now site working fine but I am facing errors when I try to install W3 total cache.


I get the following error:

FTP credentials don’t allow to write to file /var/www/nginx.conf

W3 Total Cache Error: Files and directories could not be automatically created to complete the installation.

Please execute commands manually

or use FTP form to allow W3 Total Cache make it automatically.
