On one of my servers i can't CHMOD 777 Files, but i can CHMOD 777 Folders.
Files are chmod 777 but on scripts installation... It's Said Please Chmod Example.php to 777
Centos 5
PHP 5
Apache 2.2.3
OK so I'm on the shell and looking at the contents of my home/ directory which has all the various accounts. In each account directory are subdirs such as mail, logs, tmp, etc, and public_html. Is there a way (or a ZIP command) to be in the home directory and create a massive ZIP file containing all the account directories, each containing ONLY the respective public_html subdir for that account?
Using the command "zip -r Backups.zip ./" seems to include all those extra folders (such as mail, etc.) that aren't needed.
i need to find al www folders within home directory with 777 permissions and need to chmod to 750.
if possible post the command to do it
what is the difference between www and public_html? I have hosed my domain in a small hosting company and when i was going through all its folders i found both the folder www and public_html has the same content. but by hosting company asks me to upload all my files into public_html. Iam curious to know the difference between these two folders.

I have this in my root (public_html) folder. However when you go to [url]
it redirects you to [url]
I'm already in the root. Why would it try to go to public_html/public_html?
What's the correct implementation of this .htaccess?
My server has one IP address assigned to it and i use Webmin with Virtualmin to manage domains.
When you put my IP into a browser like [url]however, it points to my websites public_html folder at /home/username/public_html, which was the first domain i set up.
I would like to change it so that the IP points to its own folder: /var/www/html when entered into a browser.. how do i do this?
I have recently registered a new dedicated server, I am trying to move some sites over. Essentially, what I am trying to do is copy the public_html folder from one server to another.
I have root access on both accounts, I have managed to move the whole home folder from the old to the new, but I guess I would need to download all 2gigs worth of data then upload again, or is it possible to extract only the information you need from the compressed backup.
I am thinking that specifying data from an uncompressed folder wouldn't be possilbe, so, is there a way of moving certain folders from one server to another via SSH?
I wanted a move 1 accounts from cPanel to DirectAdmin server platform. I know it has to be done manually. But this one account has 800MB.
So the question is:
Is it possible to tar public_html while keeping every permission & folder ownership at it's correct setting?
(Sql is not a problem for me)
My website has 200,000 webpages.
I would like to upload all of them to the hosting under public_html
I do not use sub directory.
Can I make sever down or slow?
I have a VPS with WHM/cPanel on linux.
Currently my sub-domain points to a sub-folder in public_html
I want to make 18 sub-domains but I want them to point to public_html instead.
In other words sub.domain.com will point to /home/user/public_html/ instead of /home/user/public_html/sub/
When I'm adding a new account, I got some error:
[url]
How can I fix that?
I've just moved from a reseller account with ResellerZoom, so a VPS with SolarVPS.
When I was with RZ all my scripts could write to folder with the 755 permissions. On the vps I have to alter the folder I want the script to write to to be 777.
Which the is best and most secure?
I think I understand that if a folder is 777 then anyone on the server can write to that folder. So I assume some sort of thing that stops users being able to access folders outside of their own folders is needed? is that right?
I have a server running php 5.2.4 with CGI as Server API and suexec, but I cant create dirs in php with chmod 755. When I use mkdir("/home/user/public_html/$dirname", 0755); it creates the dir with chmod 744. Why?
I can change later this chmod to 755 in php with the chmod function. But why my server doesnt allow the directory to be created as 755? Where can I configure it?
How change CHMOD for all files *.php on account /home/user/publc_html?
I user chmod -R *.php
but this does not work for subfolders /home/user/public_html/subfolder1
I am getting this error and I just installed apache 2.2 and added a user using useradd user. When i added into the virtual which is:
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot /home/user/public_html
ServerName user.com
</VirtualHost>
It does not find the public_html folder I added. Is this a permissions problem? or something else?
created one problem for us cpanel

/home/create1/public_html does not exist or is not a directory!
I was wondering if it were possible to chmod a directory that is set to a low number to 777 using a shell or command and if so can anyone point me in the right direction as to how to go about doing so ??? I am trying to learn a little and i pefer using my browser to edit files rather then a ftp client.

as far as i understand we're only supposed to use 775 for folders and 644 for files correct?

My account has been hacked with every index.php page defaced. I've cleaned up and my shared wehost is pointing at me saying there shouldn't be any 777 permissions for any files in there.
I used 777 to allow php to add records in a txt file and in an xml file.
Is there a better / more secure chmod code I can use?
Those are the only two instances where I need php to write to a file and those files shouldn't be served to anyone, I do not want anyone to be able to access them.
How can I secure them while letting php write in them?
I've recently moved to a new server in which I don't have root, so bare with me.
For some reason when I upload a file with 'move_uploaded_file($tmpName,$new_filename)', it seems to work fine - but when I check it, try to download it (http or ftp), or change the permission - I can't, because its set to 600 for some odd reason, and owned by the user Apache is setup on.
i download a script .. when i unzip the script .. all the folder have chmod to 700 + 600
what command could let the folders and sub folders have chmod to 755 ( as root )
i command this
chmod 755 *
but the folders inside the folder didn't chmod to 755
there is alot folders thats why its hard to do it manually :p
I have my web server hacked several times and I am beating my head against the wall trying to find the problem(s).
Way back when my sites have been defaced and CHMODing my *.html files to 744 seemed to have done the trick
Now someone has put a phishing site somehow, which by the way I'm not able to remove still, I can't help but to think that I may have more CHMODing to do, I have recursevly set my site to 755, shoud this do the trick? I know I need to chmod .htaccess and alike files to 644, but what about...imagesCGI/PHP?cssetc?
What other steps can I take to secure this thing?
it's a shared host, limited access, but I do have SHELL.
I got a VPS with Linode and I have installed CentOS 5.2 32-bit, Apache, MySQL and ProFTPd. The server itself runs very OK, however, I have issues with running 'chmod' on the user interface with either FileZilla or CuteFTP pro.
Whenever I try to chmod 777 on a directory, I got this error on the FTP client interface:
Quote:
Command:SITE CHMOD 777 includes
Response:550 CHMOD 777 includes: No such file or directory
Why no such file or directory? weird. It's just on the server though. The FTP user is the owner/group of the directory I try to chmod to.
But I am able to run chmod on Putty.
