   When you wget and untar files from other servers, there will be permission issues disallowing WordPress from auto updating or modifying those files via the web interface. this can be solved by typing the following in terminal:

   chown -Rf www-data /var/www/aigohost.org/public_html/wordpress/wp-content

   It gives permission to the apache daemon (www-data) to own the files and allow other programs to edit files

   Don’t do chmod 777, which is a security risk. Do chown first, and it should be enough.
