I have a script (Joomla) that creates files and directories on the server. The problem is that it creates them under owner 99 99 (nobody) and after I can't delete or modify them by FTP without the help of the server admin.
I think that is move_uploaded_file function of php.
Is there any solution of this problem by the WHM or by the server admin? Can I modify the default owner in ftp?
分享 The user that PHP runs under - nobody - is set by the system administrator. There's nothing you can do about that.
You can try chown() to change the file's owner if you know the FTP user's ID. Usually though, you will not be allowed to do this from within PHP.
Depending on the group situation on the server, it could be that if you use chmod to change the file's access rights after the file has been uploaded, the FTP account can access the file:
Try this first:
chmod($uploaded_file, 0660); // owner+group read+write
If that doesn't work, try this:
chmod($uploaded_file, 0666); // global read+write
one of these should make the file usable by the FTP account.
The 0666 is highly discouraged because other users on the server could write into your files, but in some configurations, it's the only way to get going.
