Ubuntu Users,
I have Appache, PHP, and MySQL all set up and running smoothly. I
also have three different web sites that I keep in my localhost
directory and view from within FireFox, without any problems.
So, I was suprised when I created a little PHP script to test
something, and when I viewed it through FireFox, it said there was a
"permissions error".
At first I thought this must be a PHP problem, because I create and
view files within my localhost directory all the time. But the people on
the PHP mailing list were sure it was just a file permissions problem.
Sure enough, I looked at the file properties from a command prompt,
and the default was not to be read or written to:
-rw------- 1 dave dave 20 2006-02-13 22:45 /home/dave/web_sites/phpinfo.php
So I changed the properties with chmod 777 and the file opens fine.
Now I'm confused by this. Why would this file, which I created and
saved using gedit, automatically have its permissions set up so I can't
view or edit it? Why does no other file that I have made or edited
behaved like this? Is this a one time problem, or is there a fundamental
problem I'm missing?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
