Permissions On Apache Server
Jun 10, 2009
Not sure if this is an Apache issue but I'm guessing it is. I also have cPanel on this server.
I made a PHP script and placed it on my server. This script has a function that will create a new file on the server, say a .txt file with information in it. When I go to do anything with that file that is created such as edit it, I get a permission denied from the server.
For example, FTP returns:
"Response: 550 Rename/move failure: Permission denied. "
Someone guessed that it is possible that when the PHP file is creating a new file on the server, it automatically places its permissions under root/apache, making it inaccessible for the cPanel user... if this were the case how could I potentially solve this issue?

My web server starts from /var/www/xxx/xxx/
I have installed phpmyadmin, and i tried placing the folder both in /var/www/xxx/xxx/ and /var/www/ and neither seem to work.
How I can get it to show up in the /var/www/xxx/xxx so i can just access from my.site.name/phpmyadmin
Even more preferred would be keeping it in the /var/www/ folder, but still being able to access my site at my.site.name/index.php and my phpadmin by my.site.name/phpmyadmin

Is it possible to lock for example the site down with basic auth and lock a subdirectory of it with a different basic auth?
Example: URL...
<LocationMatch "/*">
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Main Gate"
AuthBasicProvider file
AuthUserFile /etc/accounts
Require valid-user
</LocationMatch>
[code]....

We have several sites on one server. When I use the plesk wordpress manager it some how updates the User and Group permissions on folders and files with the username apache. How or what command do I run to get it to use the site username and psacln. It appears something maybe in an update or whatever has caused this issue. This only occurs with wordpress and drupal updates from the plesk interface.
What command can I run just to update the permissions to update all users to a username and psacln security settings on folders and directories.Running Plesk 12.0.18 and CentOS7

Compliments about the integration of Fail2Ban. I saw a lot of blocks on different IP addresses that tried to logon to the server. Fail2Ban is setup to monitor SSH, FTP, and some more.
It is however not possible to activate the "plesk-apache" and "plesk-apache-badbot" jails.
I receive the following error when I try to activate the jails:
Cannot activate the selected jails: f2bmng failed: ERROR NOK: ('plesk-apache',)
ERROR NOK: (13, 'Permission denied')
ERROR NOK: (13, 'Permission denied')
......
ERROR:f2bmng:Command '['/usr/bin/fail2ban-client', 'reload', 'plesk-apache']' returned non-zero exit status 255
ERROR:f2bmng:Failed to reload following jails due to errors in configuration: plesk-apache
When i look into the logfile of fail2ban, i see that there are no permissions for the log files:
2015-01-10 20:14:40,987 fail2ban.comm [19428]: WARNING Command ['set', 'plesk-apache', 'addlogpath', '/var/www/vhosts/system/[domainname]/logs/error_log'] has failed. Received IOError(13, 'Permission denied')
The file permissions are set as following on all the log files:
-rw-r--r-- root root
I'd really like to activate Fail2Ban for Apache too.

I'm running FileZilla Server on Windows Server 2008 Web Edition SP2. Everything works fine but I need to figure out how to make FileZilla set permissions on a file after its uploaded.
What is happening when I upload a file to the web server using through FileZilla Server the only permissions set on the file are for
SYSTEM
admin
Administrators
So when I try to access the file through a website I get a 401 - Unauthorized error and I have to go through and manually set the permissions every time on the server.
I need to find out how to make FileZilla setup the correct permissions on the file for the IIS user. Any help would be appreciated.
My Sever setup
DotNetPanel
IIS 7.0
Windows Server 2008 Web Edition
FileZilla Server
8GB Ram

I have a python script that generates images and is able to write them into a directory on the same web space
However, I would like the same script to write files into another directory located in the web space of another domain on the same server.
For example, script lives here...
/var/www/vhosts/domain1.com/httpdocs/scripts/myscript.py
this works...
/var/www/vhosts/domain1.com/httpdocs/scripts/images/
this fails...
/var/www/vhosts/domain2.com/httpdocs/web/images/
The directory structure already exists, so there is no need to create any new directories
I have tried setting permissions for the destination "images" directory to 777 and that didn't work.
Do I need to specify something within Plesk to enable it to write to another directory?

I'm trying to get FTP working on a FreeBSD 7.1 box running ProFTPd.
The service runs but the issue is that the users cannot write to their home dirs. The server returns a 550 error.
Previously ProFTPd ran as user and group of "www" but I changed it to "nobody", which did not change anything.
I'm sure the issue is that of the home dirs for the users being owned by the users themselves and the service account not having access to write in that directory.
I'm not sure what is best to do here. Do I lift permissions so everyone can write to the home dirs? or is there a better way?

Let me start off with saying: I haven't had any suspicious activity, nor do I think I was compromised.
I logged in as root, and was simply clicking around my dedicated server and came across a few folders with permissions at 777. ALL are above /public_html
Irregardless, is this safe? I recall reading a bunch of topics on here, that /tmp needs to be hardened. Isn't this also above /public_html?
For one example:
/var/tmp is chmod to 077
..inside is a bunch of sess_ files
Is this folder open to hacking?

when I setup a server I don't really care about permissions, I do lot of nasty chmod 777 * and stuff to easily get away with permission issues, since I'm the only one with access anyway.
But for a server that may be used for webhosting, how do I go about setting permissions in home directories so that programs like apache/php can still read/write to the user's web data? I'm guessing I need to add the user apache to each user's group and chmod 770 but I'm not too sure how to go about that, or if that's even how I should do it.

how permissions work in IIS in basic english
I spent ages trying to get a crm system working on my server and it only worked without errors when I changed the anonymous user privileges to "change" instead of "read".
Now this is meant to be insecure right? But my question is.... what exactly can go wrong with this configuration? In what ways is it insecure?
Also... correct me if I'm wrong but do:
- Web server permissions: only affect what scripts can run locally etc... and
- User / file level permissions: Protect against anonomous access changes from the net?

I have installed openvpn on the machine but i am having issues. I had to create /dev/net/tun manually and get permission errors on the device. I installed the openvpn rpm from [url].
on service startup i get the following log
Jul 4 22:03:09 gizmo openvpn[9517]: Note: Cannot open TUN/TAP dev /dev/net/tun: Permission denied (errno=13)
Jul 4 22:03:09 gizmo openvpn[9517]: Note: Attempting fallback to kernel 2.2 TUN/TAP interface
Jul 4 22:03:09 gizmo openvpn[9517]: Cannot allocate TUN/TAP dev dynamically
Jul 4 22:03:09 gizmo openvpn[9517]: Exiting
i installed from an rpm package on my cent0s 4 virtual machine, i followed the tutorial here, but to summarise after installing:
yum install openvpn -y
#Now check that it works
service openvpn start
#service fails - reason permission error on /dev/net/tun
running ifconfig i do not get a TUN/TAP device listed, im guessing as i haave never used vps before but i presume if all was working well i would get an additional interface listed alongside vnet0?
i have asked my vps provider to check i have TUN access, however in the meantime i would like to check there is nothing fishy with my setup?

Running LAMP, CentOS and webmin.
I've created a user and group for FTPing to a new domain. Problem is that when using Filezilla I get 'critical transfer error' after uploading files.
I have no problem with doing uploads as root, so this would appear to be permission problems.
So my question is, what do I need to do with the ftp user / or group in order to give appropriate permissions to place files under the public_html directory? Either through SSH or via Webmin...

I have some folders and files which simply won't let me upload, rewrite, rename, change permissions etc. Any action I try to perform on them simply gives me an error such as
550 Could not change perms on /public_html/foldername: Operation not permitted
The current permissions seem fine (755) and cpanel's file manager isn't having any luck either.
It's for a zen-cart site
Machine is running Cent OS with the following;
cPanel Version 11.2.17-CURRENT
cPanel Build 12566
Theme x3
Apache version 1.3.37 (Unix)
PHP version 4.4.6
MySQL version 4.1.22-standard

Yesterday I upgrade to cPanel 11... I can perfectly login using WHM, but one of our customers can login using root, this is the error:
Access Denied
The server was configured to not permit you access to the specified resource. If you believe this is in error or inadvertent, please contact the system administrator and ask them to update the host access files.
Where should I specify WHM login permissions?
Thanks.

I am in the process of setting up my server and have come to the stage where I am uploading my actual website scripts and files. I am a little confused however as to what permissions and file/directory ownership my website files should be set to.
My web root is set to 755 (rwx/r-x/r-x) with Owner as root, and Group as root. All files within the web root are set to 744 (rwx/r--/r--) with the owner and group the same as the web root. The permissions set allow php scripts to function but I am not sure if the group should be set to root on all these files, is this correct?
My site users have no ftp access if that makes any difference to ownership.

In trying to setup a cronjob on a new server I notice that cPanel tells me that usr/bin/crontab permissions are wrong and that they need to be changed to 4755.
When I log in to the server with WinSCP and attempt to change the permissions it just doesn't do it ... it looks like it's doing it, no errors, but it just leaves it the same!

I tried installing webdav on my VPS, but I'm having problems. I added the module as a DSO. I'm able to connect to it fine (in multiple client (dreamweaver, cadaver)), however, when I try to upload, I'm not able to. Apache has permissions for that directory and for the lock file. However, I get a 403 Permission Denied error.

I'm using wsftp checking permissions in domain.net in this directory:
/public_html/mambots/content/plugin_jw_sig
through wsftp i saw chmod 755 but when i try to delete this directory appears with 550 and i can't delete it
So i used File Manager tool in Cpanel, selected directory to erase it, seems like was done, but when i refresh page the directory it's still there, so i try to change permissions because apparently it has 755 but i can't do anything with it, so when i click button to change permission i got an error message [a fatal error or timeout occurred while processing this directive]
Then i go trough wsftp to check again and this directory it's still there

I've created a new site on an IIS server. And when I try to access it, I get a window authentication window.
Seems I've had this happen before and it was a problem with IUSR permissions or password?

This is what you get when you go to this one site on the server in your browser:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
This is a site in a reseller's account. The reseller had suspended it for non-payment. The account owner paid their fees, and the reseller unsuspended it. But now the site can't be reached.
I chowned and chmodded the account, but that didn't fix it.

I was on a server (reseller account) that ran PHPSuexec and default permissions were 755/644 as they should be.
We moved to a new cPanel 11 server and default permissions are 775/664. This is the same on 4 different servers from 4 different hosting companies (all reseller accounts). Three are CentOS, one RedHat Enterprise.
I entered a support ticket for one company and they said the permissions were not right and supposedly fixed it (I have left that company since then so I can't check).
The other hosting companies say their umasks are right and would not change it.
Apparently the apache installation defaults to these permissions which, security wise, seems kinda strange.
Can anyone shed some light on whether or not this is secure and does this mean I'm going to have change permissions evertime I upload files to install shopping carts, billing software etc.? (It's not hard it's just stupid to have to).
Should my hosts change apache system umask (022) to make permissions default to 755/644?

I just ran into a very odd problem with my server. I was checking out my banner links on other sites when I realized none of them were displaying. I quickly checked the folder I keep the image in and I got a forbidden access warning. I checked the folder from ftp and it said the permissions were set to 0, instead of 755 like they should be
I can't move, delete, view, or alter the folder in any way.

my question is relating to a "DJ Panel" that I am making. I am looking into various file permissions and was wondering if all PHP files that are part of the DJ Panel have file permissions of 0666 will that pose any kind of security threat (make life easier for hackers) or do you see any downside to doing this?

I uploaded a joomla template and now need to edit the css file. But it says it is unwritable. Earlier, I had a problem editing an image. My host said, "Since these files were created the webserver, you didnt have ownership to change these files."
So perhaps the same happened with the css file? What do you think?
