Comment (by ekamran):

 Thanks for confirming this.

 I re-tested this against WordPress 7.0-RC4 and can still reproduce the
 same behavior with `FS_METHOD` set to `ftpext`.

 In this setup, the standard Plugins > Add Plugin flow opens the expected
 “Connection Information” FTP credentials modal, but installing a provider
 from Settings > Connectors still stays on the Connectors screen and shows
 the generic error notice instead.

 I’m happy to help test a patch for this flow, or help with a Gutenberg-
 side fix if that would be useful.
