I can not add a comment to this post - https://stackoverflow.com/a/21797786/6143954.
So I created a new question.
It was the correct answer before it was edited. In this answer, the line
sudo chmod -R 770 /var/www/
is replaced by
sudo chmod -R 760 /var/www/
Specifically, this solution is not suitable for Django.
The answer should not be changed after it has been marked as the right solution.
That was the correct answer before correcting the original post.
The GOOD solution would be:
sudo groupadd varwwwusers
sudo adduser www-data varwwwusers
sudo chgrp -R varwwwusers /var/www/
sudo chmod -R 770 /var/www/
How correct is this solution?
sudo chmod -R 770 /var/www/ is fine.
This means that owner and group has all rights and others don't have any rights.
This is right way.
If you set 760, group users will get Permission denied on read or write attempts.
For files inside directory you can set them as 760.

I'm using NLTK with my Django/Apache application, however when loading a page it returns Permission denied: '/var/www/nltk_data' error. I made my user (not root) the owner of /var/www and gave permissions with sudo chmod -R 770 /var/www/. What else can I do to remove this error?
Try sudo chmod -R o+r /var/www/ This will add read permissions to other.
The apache user trying to write to /var/www/nltk_data folder is www-data. So I made this user the owner of nltk_data folder then it worked.
mv: cannot move './starport' to '/usr/local/bin/starport': Permission denied
I know this comes late but it can help some other people.
Starport installation requires write permission to the /usr/local/bin/ directory. If you get such error, do this
run
curl https://get.starport.network/starport | bash
then run
sudo mv starport /usr/local/bin/
to move to the local bin directory with sudo.
Just run the script in terminal sudo curl https://get.starport.network/starport! | sudo bash command download binary and move to /usr/local/bin/
Checkout Write permission Section from Install Support Docs
https://docs.starport.network/guide/install.html
curl https://get.starport.network/starport | bash -> For write access
sudo mv starport /usr/local/bin/ -> To move it into sub-root folders
I am trying to upload images in django. I have set static directory in settings.py
MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, '/assets/image/')
MEDIA_URL='http://127.0.0.1:8000/assets/image/'
here is my model image Field
doImage=models.ImageField(upload_to='doImage/%Y/%m/%d',verbose_name='Do Image')
Now when i tried to upload it then i faced permission denied 13 error.
I had tried command chmod with 777 to give a permissions to folder
sudo chmod -R 777 assets
i also had tried change user of file using command
sudo chown -R hassan:hassan assets
But both things didn't worked for me. So anyone have idea that what's going wrong let me know.
Django stores files locally using MEDIA_ROOT and MEDIA_URL. Please refer this doc for more details.
For example you can also check this.
Don't do:
sudo chown -R root:root assets
This way only root user has rights over assets
Do:
sudo chown -R your_user:your_user /path/to/your/assets
When I SSH into my AWS EB instance to run php artisan migrate, I get the following error message:
Link to bigger size of picture below
I am completely confused. First, I don't get this error on the local server. Second, what does a simple log file have to do with migrations anyway? They are ignored by git by default, so no log files are uploaded.
Sigh... Any ideas on how I can be allowed to run my php artisan migrate?
It's always the storage folder. Blank pages or permission denied, it's the darn storage folder.
I don't know how EB works, if it's a regular distro or what, but you should change ownership of the storage folder to the web server (www-data most likely) so it can build the views then set 775 permission so you can write/read logs.
So something like:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data storage/
sudo chmod -R 775 storage/
I've gone through the same error
As stated here,
AWS AMI uses webapp as the web user, not apache or ec2-user as the
file shows. In that case, the webapp user has no access rights over
those files.
So, going through the steps mentioned in there fixed the problem
sudo chown $USER:webapp ./storage -R
find ./storage -type d -exec chmod 775 {} \;
find ./storage -type f -exec chmod 664 {} \;
Depending on what you're aiming to do afterwards you might need to go through this too.
I have my instance of the Amazon AWS running, test page is up.
I am trying to SFTP the files to the server to display my website. I have Filezilla connected to the AWS server but when I try to move the files from my local machine to the /var/www/html directory, it says permission denied.
I just figured out I CAN move the files to the /home/ec2-user directory. So my files are on the server I guess. But when I try to move them from there to the /var/www/html directory, it still won't move them, permission denied.
I've been researching this for approximately 2 hours now but I haven't been able to locate the answer to this.
Any help is greatly appreciated, i'm so close! Haha
Thanks
UPDATE
To allow user ec2-user (Amazon AWS) write access to the public web directory (/var/www/html),
enter this command via Putty or Terminal, as the root user sudo:
sudo chown -R ec2-user /var/www/html
Make sure permissions on that entire folder were correct:
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html

Understanding and Using File Permissions
if you are using centOs then use
sudo chown -R centos:centos /var/www/html
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html
For Ubuntu
sudo chown -R ubuntu:ubuntu /var/www/html
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html
For Amazon ami
sudo chown -R ec2-user:ec2-user /var/www/html
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html
In my case the /var/www/html in not a directory but a symbolic link to the /var/app/current, so you should change the real directoy ie /var/app/current:
sudo chown -R ec2-user /var/app/current
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/app/current
I hope this save some of your times :)
If you're using Ubuntu then use the following:
sudo chown -R ubuntu /var/www/html
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html
This work best everyone
chmod ugo+rwx your-folder

In my case, after 30 minutes changing permissions, got into account that the XLSX file I was trying to transfer was still open in Excel.
for me below worked:
chown -R ftpusername /var/app/current
