warning: fileowner(): stat failed for temporary://update_zgp3da in update_manager_local_transfers

By | June 8, 2014

I dumped into this issue after moving a client Drupal 7 website from their Hosting Provider to my Superfast Web Servers powered by NGINX and Varnish Caching.

warning: fileowner(): stat failed for temporary://update_zgp3da in update_manager_local_transfers

Workaround:

1.  Login to admin backend
2.  Go to Configuration > Media > File System
3.  Check the values entered in:
◦Public file system path
◦Temporary directory

4.  Double-check those paths, directories, or folders are existing in your system folders (in most cases, the “tmp” folder is missing, therefore creating a folder in your Drupal site root level will fix the issue)
5.  Try installing or updating your Drupal again after folder paths are created

NB:
