Set File Permissions

Logaholic needs to write files to certain directories, such as the “files” directory and the “data” directory.

You may have to change the permissions on these folders to allow Logaholic to write files.

You can change permissions via the command line or via your ftp client.

What level of permissions you need depends on your server setup and the system user Logaholic runs under (which is usually the same user your web server (Apache, ngnix) is running under). That user needs to have write permissions to those directories.

Usually permission level 644 is sufficient.

On most FTP clients, you can set “write” access/permission by right-clicking on the subdirectory, selecting “File permissions”. See Changing File Attributes for more information on changing file/folder permissions.

NOTE: You can skip this step on a Windows server or desktop machine.
