Spartacus does not set owner values

Post by Tobi »

I installed Spartacus and typed in my FTP-User in "Owner of downloaded files ". It seems that Spartacus ignores this input because by Spartacus uploaded files have "wwwrun nogroup" as user.

What did I wrong and what can I do?

It depends very much on the server setup, if changes to ownership/permissions are allowed by the webserver. Spartacus only tries to do what you configure it, but if that really works is depending on your permission setup and if the server allows it; sadly there is no easy way to detect if changing the owner is really possible.

You might want to look up the "fixperm.php" script in our FAQ on www.s9y.org - if that also does not work, your server does not ally chmod/chown operations...

Thanks for reply. That's really a pitty. The fixperm.php is working well for me. But it is more than unconvinient to delete a template this way. :wink: So I will upload all files manually in future.

Maybe in your case it would help to not change the owner of the files, but to adjust the permission to "777" to grant your FTP user read/write access?

Yes, that would be another possibility. Dunno why but I prefer the manually upload. However, thanks for help.
