    Found the problem. WordPress had the server FTP to itself and most DSL modems do not allow loopback. The server could not reach itself by domain name or external IP.

    Solution: add the domain name to the /etc/hosts with the LAN IP address. Now it does not need to exit the LAN to FTP to itself.

    I’d believe that if I couldn’t log into the FTP server from a remote and a local PC using the same credentials. It not the FTP server. The wordpress importer isn’t even trying to connect to my server. There would be a log entry if it had. Now I have a new entry, a hacker from India trying to get in.

    We’re now wasting our time trying to debug the importer’s downloader. Is there any way to install the imported manually?

    Thanks but while that got rid of the login credentials popup, the result was the same and there is still no entry in the vsftp.log file where a server tried to connect.

    I don’t think it’s DNS related since on one attempt I put the server’s static IP address in the hostname box.

    Update: I could manually generate them to get the site up but this is no solution. I would like this to be automatic so I can add/remove/rename photos.

    From each cache_160x0 run this command.

    ls ../*.jpg | sed 's|../||g' | while read file; do sudo convert ../$file -resize 160x-1 $(echo $file | tr A-Z a-z); done
