Proftpd Permissions html folder

Hi huys
I have Armbian Stretch on Banana pi M1
I have working proftpd for ftp group and users in that group, but i have problem with /var/www/html folder if i chmod for user then i can upload and delete files, but then i have to chown www-data for website to function properly.
So my question is how can i make it work so that folder is owned by www-data and i still have perm to upload, delete, modify files?

 

I would say better to setup web server to work as the user and group that owns that website. That is the way ISPConfig does it.
Unfortunately I am spoiled by ISPConfig and do not know how to setup this kind of web server running as website user manually.

 

Thanks, I will look into that.
Previously i was using OMV and this was all done with gui, but banana pi is little slow so thats why im using just proftpd.
The problem is that if apache folder is owned by someone else than www-data i get You dont have permissions to view this page...

 

I just managed to do it I guess i just needed some push and account on howtoforge
Thats what i did:
Added new user to www-data group

Code:

useradd -g www-data webroot

Set password for new user

Code:

passwd webroot

Set permissions for new user in /var/www

Code:

chown -R webroot:www-data /var/www

Then edited apache envvars

Code:

nano /etc/apache2/envvars

Then changed apache run user from www-data to new user

Code:

export APACHE_RUN_USER=webroot

Then finaly i restarted apache2 service

Code:

systemctl restart apache2

Also i added this to the end of proftpd.conf

Code:

<Directory /var/www>
    <Limit ALL>
        DenyALL
    </Limit>

    <Limit DIRS READ WRITE>
        AllowUser webroot
    </Limit>
</Directory>

So far this works but still have to test it
