Apache logs
move_uploaded_file failed to open stream: Permission denied in /var/www/html/upload.php
on line 37, referer: http://localhost/filetest.htm
I have already tried everything mentioned here, but still facing the issue.
Here are the permissions for the folders
drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data rohit 4096 Feb 24 15:58 tmp_uploads
drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data rohit 4096 Feb 24 15:05 uploads
I got the owner from
<?php echo exec('whoami'); ?>
chown user destination_dir
chmod 755 destination_dir
and then changed the owner of the folder with that user.
Could somebody help me unblock please?
