Forums / Plugin: Redirection / Update fails
(@ocglimited)

I’m running v4.7 and am trying to apply the update in wordpress, but it fails with:
Update Failed: The update cannot be installed because we will be unable to copy some files. This is usually due to inconsistent file permissions.
My other plugin updates worked fine. I checked owner/group and permissions on all files under plugs and all are set correctly.
Any idea how to fix this?

The plugin has no control over the update. This looks like a WordPress issue that, as it says, is probably related to file permissions. You may want to look in sub folders to see if everything is the same.

Try removing the entire plugin directory using FTP and then reinstalling it from within WordPress (take a backup first!).
ok – that worker thanks
