 Hi!

 Issue: I moved my Wordpress website into another hosting company and did
 some tweaks in the VPS OpenVZ server (Apache 2.4 - CENTOS 6.9 x86_64 -
 PHP5.6+7.0). I disabled SuPHP and enabled the FCGI handler on PHP, as the
 FCGI has a better performance. Days later when I tried to update Wordpress
 into v. 4.7, it will not update and request me the FTP credentials. Also
 the plugin update requested the FTP credentials.

 Solution: my hosting provider and after a lot (really many) tries, managed
 to solve the Wordpress file permission issue. Only chmod did not resolve.
 They found out that inorder to Wordpress+plugins to update the PHP handler
 must be SuPHP. FCGI was blocking the updates, or so it seems.

 Not sure this could be a bug, but I report it here so you can check.

 Hope to have helped.
