Laravel 4，Ubuntu，Apache将文件作为所有者上传到一个文件夹中

Question

I am using Laravel 4. My operating system is Ubuntu 13.10 and my local server is Apache. What I am trying to do is upload a file to the server under a folder. The problem is that both the folder and the file after the upload are owned by 'nobody' while I want me to be the owner and have all the permissions too. I don t want a solution such as cmod or chown on terminal cause both of them need to be executed every time I upload a file. Even if a change the owner of the folder uploads the files are not correctly uploaded.Here is my form(firstform.blade.php):

<form action="{{ url('form-handler') }}" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data" />

<input  name="foo"  /><br/>
<input  name="baz"  />
<br/>

<input type="file" name="book" />
<input type="submit" value="Send" />


</form>

And here is my routes:

Route::get('firstform', function()
{
    return View::make('firstform');


});


Route::post('form-handler',function(){

$name = Input::file('book')->getClientOriginalName();

$path=Input::file('book')->move('uploads/', $name);

echo 'The file uploaded is : ' .$name .' and is located in ' .$path ;


});

You should change the user under which the Apache server is operating - to the same user as yours. That makes the files/folders created by Apache owned by the proper user (you) so they are accessible.

To switch the Apache user in Ubuntu you have to:

Edit the envvars file:

sudo gedit /etc/apache2/envvars

Change:

export APACHE_RUN_USER=nobody
export APACHE_RUN_GROUP=nobody

to:

#export APACHE_RUN_USER=nobody
#export APACHE_RUN_GROUP=nobody
export APACHE_RUN_USER=YOUR_USER_NAME
export APACHE_RUN_GROUP=YOUR_USER_NAME
