777 = everybody can execute and alter everything. That is for sure not what you want. However, it would go as follows (escaping like bash):
Better do the following (everybody can read, only owner can alter or execute):
If some cgi needs to write to some location beneath htdocs change ownership of those files/directories to the user used by your webserver to run cgis (normally apache, httpd oder nobody).

Put that into command line - it will display help about chmod command. Use "man find" to find out what above does in detail.
Hi,
I am setting up an area on a unix server where multiple people will be editing web pages. Can anyone tell me how to set it up the directory and subdirectories so that when a user creates a new file, it defaults to permissions of 664 or 775?
I've tried using umask but from what I can... (1 Reply)

Hi,
I'm in the process of writing a system (in Java) where a user can register to become a member of a website.
When they register, a collection of directories and files get created by the application.
For example if a user with the name 'fred' registered they would get the following

What would be a practical way of making sure files I upload to/edit in a particular directory on a server always have the correct group permissions?

I've got a number of people sending files to me in different directory structures, and users on many different groups who need access to these incoming paths.

I'm working in a linux server where wrappers are executed by multiple users of different groups. The log and output files are created with 554 permissions by default. This is stopping other users to run the wrappers unless the log and output files are deleted or given 777 permission. Setting SUID... (1 Reply)

apache - Apache hypertext transfer protocol server overview
DESCRIPTION
apache consists of a main server daemon, loadable server modules, some additional support utilities, configuration files, and documenta-
tion.
FILES
The apache HTTPD server is integrated with Solaris.
The following files specify the installation locations for apache:
/etc/apache Contains server configuration files.
A newly-installed server must be manually configured before use. Typically this involves copying httpd.conf-example
to the httpd.conf file and making local configuration adjustments.
/usr/apache/bin Contains the httpd executable as well as other utility programs.
/usr/apache/htdocs Contains the Apache manual in HTML format. This documentation is accessible by way of a link on the server test
page that gets installed upon fresh installation.
/usr/apache/include Contains the Apache header files, which are needed for building various optional server extensions with apxs(8)
/usr/apache/jserv Contains documention for the mod_jserv java servlet module. Documention can be read with a web browser using the
url:
file:/usr/apache/jserv/docs/index.html
/usr/apache/libexec Contains loadable modules (DSOs) supplied with the server. Any modules which are added using apxs(8)are also copied
into this directory.
/usr/apache/man Contains man pages for the server, utility programs, and mod_perl.
Add this directory to your MANPATH to read the Apache man pages. See NOTES.
/usr/apache/perl5 Contains the modules and library files used by the mod_perl extension to Apache.
/var/apache/cgi-bin Default location for the CGI scripts.
This can be changed by altering the httpd.conf file and restarting the server.
/var/apache/htdocs Default document root.
This can be changed by altering the httpd.conf file and restarting the server.
/var/apache/icons Icons used by the server.
This normally shouldn't need to be changed.
/var/apache/logs Contains server log files.
The formats, names, and locations of the files in this directory can be altered by various configuration directives
in the httpd.conf file.
/var/apache/proxy Directory used to cache pages if the caching feature of mod_proxy is enabled in the httpd.conf file.
The location of the cache can also be changed by changing the proxy configuration in the httpd.conf file.
