Morning all,
I'm trying to give apache the write access to a particular folder for PHPDOCx.
[root@patdraft word2]# ll
total 4
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 718 May 15 2014 generate.php
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 May 13 09:20 lib
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 May 13 09:41 output
[root@patdraft word2]# chown -R apache:apache output/
[root@patdraft word2]# ll
total 4
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 718 May 15 2014 generate.php
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 May 13 09:20 lib
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 May 13 09:41 output
Any ideas why it's not changing the directory owner?
Thanks, Harry
Update:
I am using a directory in mount for my apache base dir.
[root@patdraft word2]# cat /etc/passwd | grep apache
apache:x:48:48:Apache:/var/www:/sbin/nologin
[root@patdraft mnt]# ll
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 Apr 25 16:21 patdraft
The phpdocx directory is inside of my web server directories.
Update 3:
[root@patdraft /]# chown -R apache:apache /mnt/patdraft/*
[root@patdraft /]# ll /mnt/patdraft/public_html/pages/word2/
total 4
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 774 May 15 09:14 generate.php
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 May 13 09:20 lib
drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 May 15 09:33 output
It's just not changing the owners?!
Update 4:
[root@patdraft word2]# egrep -iw --color=auto 'user|group' /etc/httpd/conf/httpd .conf
User apache
Group apache
It's not because the group is spelled 'Apache' instead of 'apache'. Any more ideas?
Update 5:
This is my error log from httpd after restarting the service;
[Thu May 15 10:03:15 2014] [error] [client 192.168.1.26] PHP Warning: mkdir(): Permission denied in /mnt/patdraft/public_html/pages/word2/generate.php on line 21

$fileName . '.' . $this->_extension
);
Update 6:
I am now mounting the ntfs share under the apache user to see if that fixes it.
The problem was mounting with ntfs, and Windows(?) not allowing me to change permissions.
I edited my /etc/fstab mount point to add file_mode, and dir_mode as follows;
192.168.1.211:/APShared/IT/websites/patdraft.albright /mnt/patdraft cifs rw,username=<removed>,password=<removed>,noserverino,file_mode=0775,dir_mode=0777,exec 48 48
