title: What Path is Magento Connect Trying to Change To After Login?
body: <p>At every turn, I get the error message: “Deployment FTP Error. Cannot chdir after login to:”</p>
  
  <p>I successfully did my first time through connection and setup by chmod’ing my /{complete_path_to_magento_installation_dir}/<strong>downloader</strong>/ to 0777</p>
  
  <p>a cache.cfg file got created in /downloader/</p>
  
  <p>a connect.cfg file got created in /downloader/</p>
  
  <p>I then chmod’ed /{complete_path_to_magento_installation_dir}/<strong>downloader</strong>/ back to 0755</p>
  
  <p>My Magento Installation Absolute Path is: <strong>/home/abcde/public_html/magento/</strong></p>
  
  <p>My Host’s Document Root is: <strong>/home/abcde/public_html/</strong></p>
  
  <p>My Magento Connect Directories Live at: <strong>/home/abcde/public_html/magento/downloader/</strong></p>
  
  <p>Here are my settings:</p>
  
  <p>Magento Connect Channel Protocol: <strong>Ftp</strong></p>
  
  <p>Preferred State: <strong>Stable</strong></p>
  
  <p>Use custom permissions: <strong>No</strong></p>
  
  <p>Deployment Type: <strong>FTP Connection</strong></p>
  
  <p>FTP Host: <strong>ftp://{mydomain.com}/</strong></p>
  
  <p>FTP Login: <strong>my ftp userid</strong></p>
  
  <p>FTP Password: <strong>my ftp password</strong></p>
  
  <p>Finally, when Installation Path: is set to (see list below) I get the error message(s):</p>
  
  <p>Installation Path: <strong>{I left it blank}</strong> Error Message: Unable to read saved settings. Please check Installation Path of FTP Connection.</p>
  
  <p>Installation Path: <strong>/</strong> Error Message: Unable to read saved settings. Please check Installation Path of FTP Connection.</p>
  
  <p>Installation Path: <strong>/home/</strong> Error Message: Deployment FTP Error. Cannot chdir after login to: /home/</p>

  <p>Installation Path: <strong>/home/abcde/public_html/</strong> Error Message: Deployment FTP Error. Cannot chdir after login to: /home/abcde/public_html/</p>

  <p>Installation Path: <strong>/home/abcde/public_html/magento/downloader/</strong> Error Message: Deployment FTP Error. Cannot chdir after login to: /home/abcde/public_html/magento/downloader/</p>
  
  <p>Installation Path: <strong>magento</strong> Error Message: Deployment FTP Error. Cannot chdir after login to: /magento/</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know the secret to Magento Connect Settings?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks. </p>
