After reinstalling 15.1 I have a lot of problems with my permissions. I constantly have to adjust them manually. That means I'm doing it wrong.
Here is what I do:
I create a folder. The permissions are: Owner: Me, Group: Jos (I'm the only user). Both have create and delete files. With those settings Joomla doesn't remove the installation folder. After manually removing it I get the error message:
No configuration file found and no installation code available. Exiting...
Now I use the command:
sudo chown -R www-data:jos /var/www/html/my_site
Owner is now www-data
(create and delete) Group is jos
(create and delete). Installation works fine. Site works. But I can't do anything in it, as I am not the owner. www-data
is, and I have only Access Files permission.
I am using Lamp.
How do I set it correctly?
Removing the installation folder was not automatic, I had to manually delete it.
