David, do you recall which profile you specified? I have tried as many as I
can think of without success (see other post in this thread for the list of
profiles that have FULL authority to the WordPress IFS folder).

Are there are additional things I need to do besides just give authority?
Like restart servers to clear cached items? I have restarted ZendServerCE
for some of my attempts but discontinued it because it didn't seem to help.

I was able to get WordPress up and running on my IBM i with relative ease

user
profile used by the currently running script doesn't have access to the
folder where the plugin is going to be installed, then it will prompt you
for FTP login information.

You can solve this by giving the user profile that PHP and/or Apache runs
as authority to the directory that wordpress runs in.

This is how I have it setup on my linux machine and it works fine.

I develop a few plug-in's for wordpress (I'm a plug-in kind of guy), so I
have to install & upgrade plug-in's & wordpress itself a lot.
