Hi Vencislav, thanks for pointing out these difficulties. I think the most
succinct way to say it would be:
The apache user (www-data on ubuntu) should have write access to arches.log,
and write access to the arches directory, the one that contains settings.py.
I think the most reliable way to do that is, similar to what you have
outlined,
1. modify the permissions to 664 on arches.log
sudo chmod 664 arches/arches.log
2. set www-data as group for that file
sudo chgrp www-data arches/arches.log
3. modify the permissions to 775 on arches
sudo chmod 775 arches
4. set www-data as group for that directory
sudo chgrp www-data arches
Following these steps should take care of at least two other things 1) the
arches/tileserver directory can now be automatically created the first time
it is needed (this only happens when tilestache makes the first tile
renderings, so when you load the hillshade that comes with the demo, for
example) and 2) the arches/uploadedfiles can be created and accessed by
apache when you upload the first file to your database.
This is all tricky because I have not done extensive testing to find out
the bare minimum of what is required (for example, would sudo chmod 765 arches
be enough?).
I'll update the documentation, but please let me know how things go so we
can continue to improve it.
