Error msg after a failed attempt at setting up vhost

[sptrsn]

I host my own ubuntu box on which I run my personal sugarcrm.
I was in there trying to set up a vhost and failed. (typical) I thought I restored everything to where it was, but now I'm getting an error when I enter the system settings page thus...

Warning: touch() [function.touch]: Unable to create file config_override.php because Permission denied in /opt/lampp/htdocs/crm5.5/include/utils/sugar_file_utils.php on line 161

Warning: fopen(config_override.php) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /opt/lampp/htdocs/crm5.5/include/utils/sugar_file_utils.php on line 103

sugar5.5 on Xampp. php 5.2.8, mysql 5.1.3 on Ubuntu 8.1

Any ideas on how to fix this. It was working so well.
Thanks.

I did a similar thing with my Ubuntu OS at home. I didn't both setting up Vhost configurations as it's just a local testing machine. You're errors point to a definate permission issue; probably the user/group. You might check to see which user Apache2 runs as and make the necessary chown.

Something like:

chown -fR apache.apache *
chmod -fR 0775 *

Or, make your user and apache part of the same group.

You might also look into setting the umask to 0002.

umask 0002

I seem to recall it has to be placed in some bootup file. Check on the Ubuntu forums. There's tons of forum posts out there that will head you in the right direction.

HI,

I have a solution but don't know its a good one or not.

Just create a file in room as config_override.php and give the permission 0755.

config_override.php is simply a blank php fle.

Thanks,
