I had a situation where I transfered a directory to a linux server, when I did, it automatically gave owership to the root user (since i was logged in as root). But when I FTP and I wanted to change things, I couldn't I kept getting some error: /html/phpmyadmin loaded from [Directory Listing Cache]\DIR22.tmp
site chmod 777 /html/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
550 /html/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php: Operation not permitted |
when I did a list command to list the owerner it showed root at the user and group. I wanted to change it to another user. the command I used was: When I executed this command it displayed the following: [root@myserver www]# ls -la
total 68
drwxr-xr-x 9 webmaster webmaster 4096 Jun 27 21:46 .
drwxr-xr-x 27 root root 4096 Jun 17 18:14 ..

As you can see the html directory has root for user and group. I wanted to change it to webmaster for user and group. To do this, I executed the following command to change the user and group owership of the html directory and its subdirectory (basically, anything in the html directory) This is the first command to change the GROUP OWERSHIP:
And this is the second command to change the USER OWERSHIP:
After that, I logged in to my FTP again and was I able to make my File Permission changes to 777. and this is what I wanted to see from the FTP:
site chmod 777 /html/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php
200 SITE CHMOD command successful
