I have a "multi-site" installation of Drupal 7, which means that I have these folders in my "sites" folder:
all
domain.one
domain.two
domain.x
And in each of these folders, I also have "modules" and "themes" folders.
If I click the "install new module" link on the modules page ("admin/modules") from any domain X, Drupal tries to download modules in the "all/modules" folder instead of the "X/modules" folder.
Maybe I am not using the proper phrase to search in Google, but I do not see similar problems, so it may just be my problem.
How to install site-specific modules in a Drupal 7 multi-site?
You can try the example detailed out in this post: http://www.pixelclever.com/how-set-up-drush-for-multisite-installation which basically requires you to create a drushrc.php file for each multisite, which includes the path to the respective modules folder.
Here are the lines from that post that explain
To start, go to your drush folder where you will find a file entitled example.drushrc.php. Copy that file into the individual site folder in your Drupal multisite installation (sites/yourmultisite), and rename the file to drushrc.php.
Now open that file and add the following line:
$command_specific['dl']['destination'] = 'sites/yourmultisite/modules';
or
$command_specific['dl']['destination'] = 'sites/yourmultisite/modules/contributions';
This is also a step by step walkthrough of the updating process using drush on multisites.

I found good article for multisite install here,
http://mydons.com/drupal-7-multisite-install-steps-in-linux/
http://mydons.com/drupal-7-multisite-install-steps-in-windows/
This worked for me:
Changed working directory on terminal to specific site directory
i.e. "cd [drupal_site_directory]/sites/[site_one]/ "
use usual drush command to install modules i.e. "drush dl [module_name]"
Hope this might help you guys also.

Good day! Why is it that I am not able to update my plugins in my Wordpress Website.
In my FTP File I have already set my plugins folder to 755 then configured my wp-contents to 755. In my wordpress Site Health, this is what is written in File Permission
The main WordPress directory Writable
The wp-content directory Writable
The uploads directory Writable
The plugins directory Writable
The themes directory Writable
I have done everything written in this site and still I can't update any of my plugins. I don't know what is wrong anymore or what should I do.
I am using CWP, with WordPress 5.5.1 and PHP version 7.4.10
One way to solve this problem, trying to change the FTP permissions by the “wp-config.php” file.
There're some steps to fix “Installation failed, could not create directory.” From your web hosting account, open the “File Manager”. Within the root folder, locate the “wp-config.php” file.
In your “wp-config.php” file, enter the following passage of code.
NOTE: Replace the information in brackets with your information.
define(‘FS_METHOD’, ‘ftpext’);
define(‘FTP_BASE’, ‘/pathtorootofyourblog/’);
define(‘FTP_USER’, ‘ftpusername’);
define(‘FTP_PASS’, ‘ftppassword’);
define(‘FTP_HOST’, ‘yoursite.com’);
define(‘FTP_SSL’, false);
Save the “wp-config.php” file.
Return to your dashboard and try to install the plugin or upgrade once again. This time, it should be done without any problems.
I have installed DSpace on my PC. I am using Mirage as a default theme and now I want to customize it for my DSpace. I want to change CSS files (redesign it), but I don't know the steps to properly set my customizations. I can edit my CSS files in [dspace]/webapps/themes/Mirage/lib/css/ folder, but after rebuilding DSpace they will be removed. What is the correct way doing customizations over already installed theme? Should I edit CSS files and add them to [dspace-source]/dspace/modules/src/main/ folder and then rebuild my webapps? I have read official documentation about that, but I couldn't find proper answer to my question.
Create a folder for your theme in [dspace-src]/dspace/modules/xmlui/src/main/webapps/theme/[yourTheme]
Copy the CSS (or js or xsl) files you wish to modify into that directory - you can find a copy of the source files in [dspace-install] as you have referenced, or you can find them on the project github page
Edit your changes
Run the maven build in [dspace-src]/dspace: "dspace package" - this command will pull the source files for the theme and overlay your customizations. The results are built into the "target" folder.
cd into [dspace-src]/dspace/target/dspace-installer
Run "ant update" - this command will take the built files and install them into [dspace-install]
Restart tomcat

This one is driving me crazy.
Whenever i use "drush dl" to download site_audit or drupalgeddon it downloads these modules inside the drush home folder ( /users/[user]/.drush ) instead of the current sites modules folder.
the "drush status" and the "drush #site-alias status" command gives me the correct site information, see below:
C:\wamp\www\drupal>drush dl site_audit
Install location C:\Users\Thomas/.drush/site_audit already exists. Do you want
to overwrite it? (y/n): n
Skip installation of site_audit to [warning]
C:\wamp\www>drush #drupal status
Drupal version : 7.34
Site URI : localhost/drupal
Database driver : mysql
Database username : root
Database name : drupal
Default theme : garland
Administration theme : garland
PHP executable : php.exe
PHP configuration : C:\Users\Thomas.drush\php.ini
PHP OS : WINNT
Drush version : 6.0
Drush configuration :
Drush alias files : C:\Users\Thomas/.drush/aliases.drushrc.php
Drupal root : /mamp/htdocs/drupal
Site path : sites/default
File directory path : sites/default/files
Also, when i try to download a module that already exist in the current sites modules folder it tells me so correctly. Same goes for the "en" command. I can also disable or uninstall modules successfully. Uninstalling does not remove the folder, tough.
The only thing i have noticed is that "drush configuration" does not show a path. However, i did copy the example file inside the .drush home folder AND one inside the sites/all/drush folder (i removed the 'example' from the filename off course).
Running windows 8 and tried both MAMP and WAMP with same results. I really hope someone can help me with this cause i am pulling my hair here.
Update:
I tested the dl command with other modules and they are downloaded to the correct folder. I cleared the drush cache several times. Yet site_audit and drupalgeddon keep getting downloaded to the wrong folder. I just don't get it.
Stupid me. These are both not modules but Drush extensions, hence the alternative download locations.
I think the real problem is, that you didn't specify the site-alias in your "drush dl" statement.
You run
drush #site-alias status
containing the site-alias, but
drush dl site_audit
without a sie-alias. I suppose you are in the drush folder, as drush downloads to the current folder, if no root folder is given explicitly or via site-alias.
Ok I know this has been answered a few times but as far as I can tell all answers are now outdated. Bitnami released a new installer. Instead of installing to xampp\htdocs\<name> it installs directly as xampp\apps\wordpress so I can't see a way of installing a new site.
I had stupidly renamed the folder and all instances of wordpress as a directory path to ezc only to find out that it didn't work. Turns out 4,300 files opening all at once isn't good for Notepad++...
For those of you aren't aware of the new file structure, it's as follows
xampp/
anonymous/
apache/
apps/
wordpress/
conf/
htdocs/
wp-admin/
wp-content/
wp-includes/
licenses/
tmp/
cgi-bin/
contrib/
[...]
How can I have multiple instances of WordPress hosted locally with XAMPP?
Just hopped onto the Bitnami community and found out how to create multiple sites.
Just pop the following into the command prompt (make sure you're in the same directory as installer)
bitnami-wordpress*.exe --wordpress_instance_name blog1
Replace the * with your version and blog1 with the name of your site.

I created php files for my plugin and added them to myplugin folder. Then I zipped myplugin folder as myplugin.zip. In Admin Panel of Wordpress I wanted to install my plugin to wordpress. I choosed this zip file and clicked to Install "Now button". Then Wordpress gave an error:
Unable to create directory wp-content/uploads/2013/05. Is its parent directory writable by the server?
What is the problem and how can I solve it? My OS is Linux and I use XAMPP server in my machine.
In your terminal, navigate to the wp-content folder and then run:
chmod -R 0744 plugins
That will set the folder and its subfolders to read/write/execute for you and read for everyone else.
Edit As suggested in the comments, check this out: codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions
Alternatively you can just unzip them yourself and save them into this folder:
/wp-content/plugins/name-of-theplugin
Then you can just activate the plugin from the admin page.
I am not entirely familiar with XAMPP but it should be run as a user. Most likely your own windows account. You may try this:
Select the folder wp-content and right click -> properties. then go to Security Tab. There check to see if the User (i.e. you) has write+ modify permission.
Check what is XAMPP server running as, the folder above must have the permissions for the same user.
Double check the "general" tab on the wp-content folder and check the "Attributes" section. Make sure "Read Only is unchecked. If you are changing it, windows will prompt for whether to apply to subfolder. Say "yes".
. Or run XAMPP at Administrator and skip the above step .(assuming it is not production / public internet facing server).
I had this problem yesterday, I solved it by uninstalling the Wordpress module and installing it again as root from the terminal.
I thought if I run the installation wizard as I was logged as root was enough, but it wasn't.
These are the steps for MacOS:
Uninstall wordpress module. Be sure the folder is empty.
Mount the wordpress disk image
cd /volumes/nameOfWordpressModule image
sudo bitnami wordpress module.app/Contents/MacOS/installerbuilder.sh
I recommend you to list the items so you can write exactly the name of the image and app.
Hope it helps!
navigate to your main project folder and run the following:
chmod -R 0777 wp-content
in case of MAC run
sudo chmod -R 777 /Applications/XAMPP/htdocs/
