permission issue on upgrade

Help with getting the CMS CORE package up and running. This does not include 3rd party modules, PHP scripts, anything downloaded via module manager or from any external source.

permission issue on upgrade

Post by jhoneil »

I'm currently running:
CMS: 1.9.4.3
MySQL: 5.3.5, Ubuntu 11.04, PHP 5

when I do the upgrade to 1.11.1, on the second step I get the following error:
Checking if the httpd process can create a file inside of a directory it created.

I get green lights on everything but that one entry...
I know it's a permission issue, but what and where ?

I've done the following permission settings, as outlined in the readme.txt:
chmod -R 777 tmp
chmod -R 777 modules
chmod -R 777 uploads
chmod 444 config.php

the add-on modules I have are: TinyMCE and ScriptDeploy

the site does work well, but what is holding up the upgrade ?

You need to double check your umask (in global settings).

But honestly, the problem is probably causeed by safe mode being enabled. CMSMS requires that safe mode be disabled.
