First off let me make it clear I DON'T WANT TO DO MANUAL UPDATE. Whenever I do this (even while following the instructions) I screw something up.
Okay so I have cron jobs set up properly and the link is there to auto update my site but here is the problem.
When I go to update I am asked for FTP details... I don't use FTP; I use SFTP (or SSH) because I am on a VPS. I do have an FTP user is my control panel that I installed so I tried that and no luck.
All it says is
"Invalid FTP attributes! Provided user doesn't have permissions to overwrite files."

The FTP required is the Main FTP (Special FTP created on Account creation) You should have the
Username - (Your Account)@(yourdomain)
and your password should be your CPanel log in.

You need the correct FTP Details like i said.
If your ohsting account was Oxwall and your password was Oxwall22 and your domain was Oxwall.org then the details would be,
Oxwall@oxwall.org and password is Oxwall22.
If you read what i said then it should work.

You do realize the I don't have cpanel and working on an UNMANAGED VPS where I have installed everything myself through SFTP and Putty.
My hosting doesn't provide cpanel for me and can't help me with this
sorry I gotta tell you this by those FTP details aren't correct for any hosting that I have seen
Your hostname is usually always your website domain or you append ftp to the beginning or it.
Your username never has @yourdomain appended to the end of it, at least its not supposed to.
So by your example the correct login should be
Hostname: Oxwall.org
Username: Oxwall
Password: Oxwall32
Port: 21

If you can manage your own vps you can upload a few files and that is it. FYI your username can have @yourdomain appeneded to it if you create a custom ftp user.

I've never seen it that way
I'm new to VPSes so I don't know how to do a lot of things, just really the basics
Anyways I got everything updated with SFTP
