hi Rogut thanks for the reply i'll check with my host to see if anything changed. thanks.
my permissions before were definitely 0755, not 2755. and yes, my pages are still writable. it seems like the new setttings are only causing problems with .files like .pageindex (and another .file for another recipe). so for now, looking back in the documentation online for setup, i'm seeing that 777 seems to be the standard for setting up wiki.d; if so, i'm just not sure how mine ended up at 755. anyways, unless someone else votes for 755, i'll leave mine now at 777. thanks, adam > > Message: 7 > Date: Tue, 5 Jul 2011 03:10:05 -0700 > From: adam overton <[email protected]> > To: pmwiki-users <[email protected]> > Subject: [pmwiki-users] pagelist error msg due to permissions > Message-ID: <[email protected]> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii > > hi y'all > i'm now getting the following msg on any page with a pagelist: > > > Warning: fopen(wiki.d/.pageindex,new) [function.fopen]: failed to open > stream: Permission denied in /home/user/public_html/wiki/scripts/pagelist.php > on line 755 > Warning: fputs(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in > /home/user/public_html/wiki/scripts/pagelist.php on line 767 > Warning: fputs(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in > /home/user/public_html/wiki/scripts/pagelist.php on line 767 > Warning: fputs(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in > /home/user/public_html/wiki/scripts/pagelist.php on line 781 > > ... ad infinitum ... then: > > Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in > /home/user/public_html/wiki/scripts/pagelist.php on line 785 > Warning: unlink(wiki.d/.pageindex) [function.unlink]: Permission denied in > /home/user/public_html/wiki/scripts/pagelist.php on line 786 > Warning: rename(wiki.d/.pageindex,new,wiki.d/.pageindex) [function.rename]: > No such file or directory in /home/user/public_html/wiki/scripts/pagelist.php > on line 787 > > > i'm not sure whether this is being caused by: > A. having just updated to the latest pmwiki version a couple weeks ago (after > having not updated in awhile) > or > B. my host changing some settings on their server. > > > the problem seems to be solved by changing the permissions of wiki.d from 755 > to 777. > is that a security risk? or is that alright? i had had most folders set to > 755 before, and everything seemed to be working fine for quite some time, but > now something has changed. > > thanks, > adam > > > (ps - sorry if this has been covered already in a previous post - the gmane > search feature seems to be down right now) > > > > > ------------------------------ > > Message: 8 > Date: Tue, 5 Jul 2011 13:53:54 +0300 > From: Rogut?s Sparnuotos <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [pmwiki-users] pagelist error msg due to permissions > Message-ID: <20110705105354.GA9667@urvas> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 > > adam overton (2011-07-05 03:10): >> hi y'all > <snip> >> B. my host changing some settings on their server. >> >> the problem seems to be solved by changing the permissions of wiki.d from >> 755 to 777. >> is that a security risk? or is that alright? i had had most folders set to >> 755 before, and everything seemed to be working fine for quite some time, >> but now something has changed. > > PmWiki didn't change in this regard, so it's B. > Re. security, you should ask your host what changes it has done to its web > server setup, because the web server (PHP) could write to 0755 directories > and now it can't.
