cant solve the permmisions problem

[andreig]

Hi,

I wanted to install wordpress on OLS and received a error that wp-config.php cant be created, witch means is a permissions problem somewhere, here are my settings.

Server Configuration > External App running as nobody:nobody
Server Configuration > Script Handler > Handler Type > LiteSpeed SAPI
Server Configuration > Script Handler > Handler Name> lsphp5

Virtual Host Name domain.com
Virtual Host Root $SERVER_ROOT/$VH_NAME/
Config File $SERVER_ROOT/conf/vhosts/$VH_NAME/vhconf.conf
Note: Instantiated from template PHP_SuEXEC

Virtual Host domain.com > Basic > ExtApp Set UID Mode Server UID
Virtual Host domain.com > General > Document Root /home/user/html
Virtual Host domain.com > External App running as user:user
Virtual Host domain.com > Script Handler > Handler Type LiteSpeed SAPI
Virtual Host domain.com > Script Handler > Handler Name [Server Level]: lsphp5


/home/user/html and all files in the folder are owned by user:user

What i'm doing wrong ?

thanks.

Hi @andreig

How are you trying to create a wp-config.php file? Is it through PHP, FTP, or directly (like with vi)?

Cheers,
Kevin

Hi @andreig

Looking at your configuration you have ExtApp set to use Server UID, this would require the files to be owned at minimum user:nobody. If you switch it to use DocRoot UID it will then be able to be run as user:user.

Cheers,
Jon

I have same problem in my lab
Document Root = $VH_ROOT/
Virtual Host Root = /usr/local/lsws/public_html/site1
ExtApp Set UID Mode = DocRoot UID


$ getfacl /usr/local/lsws/public_html/site1
# file: usr/local/lsws/public_html/site1
# owner: user
# group: nobody
# flags: -s-
user::rwx
group::r-x
other::r-x

all dir`s 755 (user:nobody)
all files 644 (user:nobody)

php:
$uid = posix_getuid();
echo var_export(posix_getpwuid($uid),true);

return:
array (
'name' => 'nobody',
'passwd' => 'x',
'uid' => 99,
'gid' => 99,
'gecos' => 'Nobody',
'dir' => '/',
'shell' => '/sbin/nologin',
)

Thanks to the helpers and the community!

[lswave]

I can reproduce the issue.

in php script, I used

echo system("whoami");

for the test.

I did some tests locally with a newly installed OLS and instantiated a new vhost from template PHP_SuEXEC, set the public_html DIR another as own as test:test.
It runs as DOC GUID.

I tested with current code, and this part is the same as 1.4.27.

Do the user/group exists on your system? if not, you may need to create them.

 

[w3services_net]

Fixed. Thanks
