Comment (by aberbenni):

 I have sftp/scp access to the main wp folder with a chrooted user. Every
 time I try to update I receive the error:

 {{{
 Unable to locate WordPress Content directory (wp-content)
 }}}

 Digging into the code I found that wp was looking for
 /var/www./www.mysite.com/htdocs/wp-content

 Adding this configuration should solve the problem:
 define('FTP_BASE', '/');
 define('FTP_CONTENT_DIR', '/wp-content/');
 define('FTP_PLUGIN_DIR', '/wp-content/plugins/');

 But this works only for FTP.

 The configuration of the server is explained here:
