user 99 permissions

Hi,
Is there any way to stop PS4 creating user 99 permissions on the webassist directory and sub folders when creating a new PS.
Every time I have to get the hosting support people to change them to the actual user.

Regards

Russ

I'm not sure what "user 99" permissions is, but you could create a script to run to edit the permission level after the install is completed:


use the following code to change the permissions on the webassist directory to 755, this will allow read, write execute for the owner and read, write for the user and group:

<?php

chmod("webassist/", 0755); 

?>

Hi Jason,

My hosting support said user 99 is "nobody"
and to change it to the owner only they can do it.
It seems to create this every time a theme is created.
Maybe I should give it the same name as the original theme name.

The hosting provider said that CMS systems often do this.

I have the same issue. Can't make changes to a user 99 file.
Is there a way to stop this from happening?

did you try this code:

<?php

chmod("webassist/", 0755); 

?>

if that does not work, you will need to contact the host about this, it is a server setting causing the issue.

Where/how do I run that script?

try adding that code at line 1 of the webassist/themes/theme_open.php file.
