PHP File Permission Denied

[joximu]

no - php files do not need the execute flag.

you can write a script which sets the correct permissions and owners:
eg:

Code:

!/bin/bash

username=$(ls -ld . | cut -d" " -f3)
echo "Set to user/group: $username/$username"
echo "Cancel -> Ctrl-C, otherwise press Enter..."

read

# set owner vu:vu - folders
cmd="find ./ -type d -exec chown $username:$username {} ;"
#echo $cmd
($cmd)

# set owner vu:vu - files
cmd="find ./ -type f -exec chown $username:$username {} ;"
#echo $cmd
($cmd)

# set permissions - folders
cmd="find ./ -type d -exec chmod 0755 {} ;"
#echo $cmd
($cmd)

# set permissions - files
cmd="find ./ -type f -exec chmod 0644 {} ;"
#echo $cmd
($cmd)

# php files: less permissions (do not need to be world readable)
cmd="find ./ -type f -regex .*\.php$ -exec chmod 0640 {} ;"
#echo $cmd
($cmd)

echo "finished..."
echo ""

run the script inside the htdocs folder (but the htdocs folder must have correct ownership!!! - the script get's the owner of the currect folder!)
