I have moved my Wordpress site to a new host, because of performance problems on the old host.

I have updated wp-config.php with the new host's values, but when I try to delete a plugin from wp-admin, I receive

"Plugin could not be deleted due to an error: Unable to locate WordPress Plugin directory."

I have defined FTP_BASE correctly in wp-config.php.

Where else would I need to set the value of local file system root folder?

Should we guess the plugin name? – Max Yudin Feb 12 at 11:01
You could try. This error is not dependent on the plugin - it affects all plugins. – Steve Feb 14 at 5:52

Create separate FTP user for WordPress and set your installation directory as FTP root. Or try to change it for existing user.
