Title: Add www user to a group or hint to other solution
Post by: Tillebeck on July 02, 2007, 05:51:45 PM
Hi. I am running a CMS (Typo3). It is not from a contrib just installed the old fashioned way.

I have set permission as suggested in the CMS documentation so the files in the ibay has been:
chown -R www:www *

and the shared source has been:
chown -R root:root *

My problem is now that users on the SME Server can not edit any files. And if I grant them permission (e.g. chown www:grp_cms) then after they have modified a file the www-user can no longer modify it.

I thought a solution could be to add the www user to the grp_cms group. Is this the way to do it? Or is there another way both to let the www write to files and let local users write to the same files?
