Yii2 - 异常（无效配置）'yii \ base \ InvalidConfigException'，带有消息'Web进程无法写入目录

Question

When I access the site at domain.com/web, I'm displayed this error. I changed the directory permissions and they are listed below. Any solution?

PHP User Error – yii\base\ErrorException

Exception (Invalid Configuration) 'yii\base\InvalidConfigException' with message 'The directory is not writable by the Web process: /var/www/.../site1/web/assets' 

in /var/www/.../site1/vendor/yiisoft/yii2/web/AssetManager.php:168

Permissions:-

root@...:/var/www/.../site1# ls -l web
total 48
drwxrwxr-x 9 root root 4096 Mar 20 15:56 assets
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Mar 20 15:50 css

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 958 Mar 20 17:24 AppAsset.php
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 628 Mar 20 17:24 error_log

Even after running this command:-

chmod -R 777 .

-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 958 Mar 20 17:24 AppAsset.php
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 628 Mar 20 17:24 error_log

I'm still getting same error.

I had same issue few days back.

If this was working earlier and suddenly got this error and stopped working than just restart your PC and check again. Else do the following.

In order to make a directory writable by the webserver you have to set the directory's owner or group to Apache's owner or group and enable the write permission for it. Usually, we set the directory to belong to the Apache group and enable the write permission for the group.

This worked for me.

chgrp apache /path/to/yourdir
chmod g+w /path/to/yourdir
