    • Permission for upload directory outside of web root

    Posted by Kelly Rued posts: 37 United States

    Hi,

    This is my first time configuring tiki for large file uploads. I changed over to using a directory in my /home/site/ directory one level below the web root to avoid making my mysql backups any larger.

    Now I am getting simple "failed" errors when I try to upload. What should the perms be for the directory? I followed all the steps I found around the tiki docs online and still am getting "failed" errors on every upload attempt.

    Suggestions?

    That directory must have read/write/execute access for the webserver user.
    If you have a linux box, check SELinux! Because this can block this kind of stuff. (maybe disable this first and retry)
