    I seem to have a problem with suPHP and Joomla extensions.
    Every new extension I install upload with -rx------- file rights.
    As you can guess this is causing no end of trouble and manual work.

    Can anyone point me in the right directions where to look for these settings?

    Do you see any errors in Apache's error log?

    You are looking at the wrong logfile. Your websites are not run on the ISPConfig apache server, they are run on the apache server of your linux distribution. The error log is in the log directory of the website directory.

    I'm using the VMware ISPconfig appliance.
    It has default apache config so the log files will be in /var/log
    Do you mean those?

    No, I'am not talkong about these logfiles. The errors are logged in the logfile which is inside the website directory and not in /var/log. Your website directory is /var/www/www.yourdomain.com/..

    Clearly there is a problem with the file permissions but is it the .htaccess file that is causing it?

    Hi Till
    Hi Falko

    New Problem

    Went to upload some pics in my joomla virtumart shop and found they disapeared. On closer inspection they are there but with file permissions of 600 which means nobody can see them. When I chmod them back to 644 everything is fine.

    Apache log showed error

    System is debian etch with suphp and ispconfig

    I have now tested on a second debian etch machine with suphp and ispconfig and got the same result.

    Is this a joomla issue or a suphp issue as without suphp files are chowned by www-data and this dosnt happen.

    Files must have minimum of chmod 755 and 644 in joomla

    The mode of a uploaded file can be changed by the script that handles the upload (in this case joomla). But I'am not sure if this can be set globally anywhere else. Maybe joomla has a setting to set the chmod mode anywhere in the config files?

    Hi Till

    Yes Joomla has a setting to chmod all files from its admin global settings page. I tried this and I can do a global chmod that does change the chmod of all files and is now set to do this for all new files but this is having NO Affect on the images being uploaded in the virtuemart shop. This is definitely a permissions issue in suphp not recognising that Joomla should have permission to upload the pictures. Other threads showed people with the same issue when installing modules but nobody has shown an answer to this problem.

    I also tried changing the uid and gid in the suphp config from 100 to 1 with no affect.

    Is there a way to give the user more privileges and how do I determine exactly what privilages suphp is looking for.

    Thanks
    Steve:)

    till Super Moderator Staff Member ISPConfig Developer

    No, it is not. SuPHP does not alter the permissions at all. The problem is that your shop extension does not take care of the global joomla setting. A chmod on files has to be done by the PHP script.
     
  13. steve1084

    steve1084 New Member


    OK I found the answer

    Changed unmask from 0077 to 0022 and joomla and all pics are now uploading with correct permissions.
    Definately a suphp problem changed in the etc/suphp.config file


    THanks till

    Just wondering if there are any security issues with changing the unmask setting to 0022

    Hi!

    My problem is similar but still a little different.
    In my case after installing an extension (doesn't matter which) by the Joomla! installers,chowns of the new copied files get changed to some other.After that I can't do anything with them and directories they are in.
    The server runs FreeBSD and belongs to one of the hosting companies in Poland.After contacting the server administrator a bash script runs once in 30 minutes and changes everything back to normal.
    Is there a way to fix this problem ? Manual installation of the components could be a workaround but it's easy to make a mistake that way.

    till Super Moderator Staff Member ISPConfig Developer

    I guess your question is not ISPConfig related, as ISPConfig did not run on FreeBSD?
     
  17. Leszek

    Leszek Member

    No.
    Joomla! runs ok on a server with ISPConfig.
     
  18. falko

    falko Super Moderator ISPConfig Developer

    That are the default settings for most FTP servers as well, so 022 should be ok. :)
     
  19. falko

    falko Super Moderator ISPConfig Developer

    But do you use ISPConfig on that FreeBSD server?
     
  20. Leszek

    Leszek Member

    Sorry for the delay.
    No Falko.I don't use ISPConfig on FreeBSD.This system is administered by a hosting company that uses DirectAdmin to configure their server.
    My problem is similar to steve1084's so I posted what I went thru and am very interested in the possible cause or security enhancments that could make files installed by Joomla! have a different owner (chmod seems to be ok).
    The administrator blaims Joomla! for all of this but how could a script change the owner of files so they are owned by a user with a higher UID ? It seems strange to me.
    I'm using Debian Sarge with ISPConfig and SuPHP at home and don't have any problems like that with Joomla!
