Has anyone managed to run PHProjekt under DirectAdmin?

My company's web hosting service is moving over to DA and we'd like to know if running PHProjekt http://www.phprojekt.org under DA is possible. It is designed to function under Apache, MySQL, and PHP. We have all those services on our account, but there is an issue under Ensim (which we will be moving off of shortly): we do not have a way to establish the file permissions so that the web server can write the files it needs to when processing the php scripts that form phprojekt.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris
 
Hello,

I'm not sure what kind of features it requires, but with DA, you can change all permissions on the files in your account by using the filemanager. (I'm assuming it will want chmod 777)

Thanks for your reply.

PHProjekt does work under ensim with 777 permissions, so I would assume that it would under DA. I was under the impressions that that would constitute a sizeable security hole. Is this not the case?

Hello,

Yes, 777 is very insecure because other users can write to it (if they find it).
