My hosting server does not allow to create folder/directory above WWW so my folder structure is
www.site.com
img
script
I’ve placed javascript in the script folder, and user on the site should be able to upload images on the img folder.
What permission should i use for those 2 directory ?
I’m new to Linux, so dont have knowledge on setting the necessary permission. On my Ubuntu if i set the permission to 777, only then i can upload images. Else it shows permission denied.
766 is useless for a folder. A folder that does not have the x-bit cannot be entered at all. so it’s pretty much like 700.
If you need 777 or 770 (or 775) depends on the setup of the server. If you are in the same group as the webserver, 770 or 775 will suffice. Otherwise you’ll need 777.
