Hello,

I would like to update my platform and plugins through the backend but I work locally with wamp and I don't know what kind of ftp access I'm supposed to enter. Any idea?

Now it's working but when I do the update I get a lot of warnings and this exception:

Message: Can't chmod by FTP `ow_static\` File: C:\wamp\www\agamaloka\ow_utilities\ftp.php Line: 390 Trace: #0 C:\wamp\www\agamaloka\ow_system_plugins\admin\controllers\plugins.php(671): UTIL_Ftp->chmod(511, 'C:\wamp\www\aga...') #1 [internal function]: ADMIN_CTRL_Plugins->coreUpdate(Array) #2 C:\wamp\www\agamaloka\ow_core\request_handler.php(266): call_user_func_array(Array, Array) #3 C:\wamp\www\agamaloka\ow_core\application.php(329): OW_RequestHandler->dispatch() #4 C:\wamp\www\agamaloka\index.php(73): OW_Application->handleRequest() #5 {main} Type: LogicException

Why do you need FTP for your local server, just update it manually?

Because it's way longer to look for/download all the updates for each plugin and then replace them, I would like to do it in one click

Alright, can you login to your local server via FTP?

what are the permissions of ow_static folder you see there?

if it's not 777 change it to 777.

Do the same for ow_userfiles, ow_pluginfiles, ow_smarty/template_c 

You need to set the permissions 777 recursively. 


However as far as I know CHMOD is not supported on Windows OS's, only Linux/Unix systems.
