dustinnoe Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I am renting a VPS and everything works great except for any php file that tries to operate on a file or directory(ie: chmod). I found that the problem lies in who the owner of the file/dir is. In order to work properly it must be owned by php. When I upload through ftp(filezilla) the file/dir uploaded will get the username of the user that is connected. How can I set up my server so that I do not have to manually change the owner of files and directories that php will need to operate on? BTW: Is it safe to set a directory to 777 and leave it that way? Currently my script will chmod right before and after an operation needs to occur.
