    WordPress error after moving from shared host to CPanel/WHM Vps
    The uploaded file could not be moved to wp-content/uploads. If i set 777 in permissions it works.
    Do you you know what is the problem? It is wrong if i let permission to 777?

    Thanks.

    Hey @savastgfx

    This is likely due to your current PHP handler and it's requirements. I typically recommend trying the suPHP handler. With this handler, you will need to ensure all files/folders are owned by the user with folders having the permission of 755 and files with the permission of 644.

    Some helpful articles and documentation on this topic:

    Ok. Thanks for your help. For CMS i see it is better suPHP. Now my Whm PHP handlers settings are cgi. It is ok if i change the PHP handlers from MultiPHP manager or i need to follow other steps.

    Thanks

    Hello,

    Yes, that's the correct option to use when modifying the PHP handler. The feature is documented at:

    MultiPHP Manager for cPanel - Documentation - cPanel Documentation

    Additional steps are not required.

    Thank you.
