Hello,

How to I can cange the default permissions on the folders and files?

Because now I can't upload in my WordPress movie, music, images, etc.

Thanks!
 
DirectAdmin by default installs PHP as an apache module; many of your WordPress files are managed and/or created by WordPress and are owned by your apache user. So you'll need to change the owner of your files to your username before you can access them through ftp. Use the DirectAdmin Files facility to change the username back to yours.

Or convert your server to run PHP as suPHP (CGI) instead of as an apache module, so everything will run under your username. Lots of examples and explanations on these forums; I won't spend energy explaining it again, though someone else may.

I would just to point out that suphp is the officially supported method. What I mean by that is DirectAdmin's custombuild will install suphp. I have found it to be very easy to install using custombuild.

mod_ruid may be just as good and seems to be gaining some popularity and there is even a How-To now for installing it.

Maybe soon mod_ruid can be included in custombuild.

It would be nice if that can be included, we are using it since we know mod_ruid.

[OFFTOPIC] I'm talking with John of possibilities of WebDAV with mod_ruid to solve the problems about WebDAV
 
I'm still trying to find out more about mod_ruid2, since using PHP as CGI definitely uses more server resources.

I'd appreciate a post from someone who understands the differences and can explain them.
