Permissions for Laravel storage folder

[Ramon Pego]

Hello I am facing a very annoying and recurring problem.
I have some systems using Laravel on my CentOs 6.2
Every time the system tries to create a new file in the folder
for example
~ myapp / storage / *
He gives permission error
Even though I am giving chmod -R 777 storage /
He can create the file on time, but the other day he can't.

Already sought other solutions that is used as ubuntu for example of
sudo chgrp -R www-data storage bootstrap/cache
sudo chmod -R ug + rwx storage bootstrap/cache

cause chgrp: invalid group: `www-data'

I searched for an equivalent in CentOs never found.

My server is CentOs CENTOS 6.10 V82.0.11 on apache2


Thx

What are the permissions of the folders prior to your changing them?

Today I had this same problem with a website
It was not opening at all.
I had to sort it out quickly, I gave 777 permission on the entire folder, knowing it wasn't ideal but I needed it online.

Why is so much of this owned by the root user? I assume that this folder you're showing is the output of what's present in /home/$user/ and most of this should have the user/group of the user. You might want to look at running something like this to fix the ownership/permissions issues: Simple Bash Script to Fix Account Permissions - The cPanel Admin - keep in mind this script is a 3rd party script and not something we can provide support for.

 

[Ramon Pego]

But, with permissions for the user group, will it be impacted on the web system permission?

The big problem is the site create files like log and cache for example

 

[cPanelLauren]

I'm not sure I understand the question here. All files associated with the account should be owned by the user/group belonging to that user or they will not be able to run.

: Simple Bash Script to Fix Account Permissions - The cPanel Admin -

Its works

thx

I am facing this problem too.

 

[Ramon Pego]

My biggest problem is that I commonly access, create and change something with the WHM root user.
I have several clients and making this change in each user is a painful process, but this script solves the problem or even a

chown -R user:user laravel / folder

also solve, but while I use the root user I will have this problem, but I am already working on a more correct way to do this

 

[cPanelLauren]

You should definitely not be using the root user when adding files to a user - this isn't a "problem" per say it's the default functionality, you should be using sudo to access items owned by that user

 

[Ramon Pego]

yes, I noticed that when you said earlier about having so much content owned by the root user.
my mistake.

thanks so much about this
