problem with default permissions

[sons]

Hello,

I have problem to set default permissions. Default was
'default_permissions' =>
array (
'dir_mode' => 1528,
'file_mode' => 436,
'user' => '',
'group' => '',
I tried to change it to 1533 and 493, 02775 and 0775, 2775 and 775 ... Also changed user and group. Whatever I change files in cache/upload are created as: owner - nobody, group nogroup and permissions 664.

Owner of crm folder is nobody, permissions 777

At this link is my basic problem.

SugarCRM 5.1.0c
Ubuntu 10.10
XAMPP 1.7.4

Thanks!

I am having a similar problem.

The files that Sugar writes are not accessible and I think it is because of these default permissions.

Please let me know what you discover.

Are the folder permissions set correctly for the directory housing the files?

[arosenberg]

Yes. Thats not the issue. It only applies to the files that Sugar uploads or creates itself (for example the import reports.) I can change the permissions manually and open the files. Sugar is creating them incorrectly. I found another Forum Thread and changed them to this:

'dir_mode' => 02775,
'file_mode' => 0775,

This change worked! However, are they the right settings?

Also, located this article: http://www.sugarcrm.com/kb/imp/insta...ions-on-linux/

Trying to determine with my host (Siteground) how they setup the server. This was there response to my questions (based on the article above.)

(1) Is the web server is running under the “apache” user?

The web server is running under the system user "nobody". However, all your scripts are being executed in "chroot-ed" environment under your cPanel user. The correct permissions for this hosting environment are 644 for the files and 755 for the folders.

(2) Have you set all the files to belong to the “apache” group, the same group as the "apache" user belongs?

The apache system user "nobody" does not need to to own your files, because the execution/read/write operations are being performed with your cPanel user - pixprocr.
