I'm following the guide here (admittedly it's a little dated) to deploy my first Symfony 4 project to production. It was going all good until I got to the file permissions. I did the steps specifically in Step 4 of the link :
sudo chown -R myuser:myuser /var/www/html
sudo chmod -R 750 /var/www/html
sudo setfacl -R -m u:www-data:rX /var/www/html/project
sudo setfacl -R -m u:www-data:rwX /var/www/html/project/var/cache /var/www/html/project/var/log
sudo setfacl -dR -m u:www-data:rwX /var/www/html/project/var/cache /var/www/html/project/var/log
That gives me
getfacl /var/www/html/project
# file: var/www/html/project/
# owner: myuser
# group: myuser
user::rwx
user:www-data:r-x
group::r-x
mask::r-x
other::---
and
getfacl /var/www/html/project/var/cache
# file: var/www/html/project/var/cache
# owner: myuser
# group: myuser
user::rwx
user:www-data:rwx
group::r-x
mask::rwx
other::---
default:user::rwx
default:user:www-data:rwx
default:group::r-x
default:mask::rwx
default:other::---
However when I go to run the web app I get a blank page and the error log shows
[crit] 3116#3116: *12 stat() "/var/www/html/project/public/" failed (13: Permission denied)
So it seems the setfacl isn't working? What am I doing wrong here? Is there a better guide for permissions?
