Top Forums Web Development Apache write permission issues to another user owned directory Post 302862011 by Scott on Thursday 10th of October 2013 04:41:51 AM

I would change the Apache user and group back to the original, then create a new group, add users prob and wwwrun to it, then change the group ownership of the /mydirectory directory to that group, change the permissions to rwx and set the SGID bit on it. Ideally, perhaps, you would want to create a new directory instead of using one owned by the prod user.
