Transfered file didn't accessible for download in user browser run on Apache2 server side because permissions for file also 660
How i can change permissions with lua in my script for filexxx to can readable for users in my website like 664

I am trying to set up a webserver running on Ubuntu. I have installed Apache and changed the root directory to an other directory within /var/www/. When I copy the index.html provided by Apache to that directory, I can access that file via remote webbrowser. But if I want to use a different index.html file, even really basic ones, I get an error: "Forbidden You don't have permission to access this resource". I have also tried to download that html, alter just a few lines and put it back on to the server with the result that it also shows that error. If I rename the initially provided index.html to index2.html I can still access it. I do not understand how it is possible that only this exact file is working.
I have tried to grant more permissions with Directory and restarted Apache but it won't work. I am rather new to Linux and Apache, can only use the terminal on my webserver and I do not know what else to do. Please help.
Change the permissions on the file, too, not just the folder. Pretty sure this fix it.
For diagnostic correction, allow permission for all by typing:
sudo chmod -R 777 /path/to/index.html
I wanted to copy my Drupal site to another location (VDS), I got full backup from my provider, (in tar.gz), untarred and ungzipped it, deleted some folders, zipped it again in 7zip format, then copied it with sftp to /var/www on VDS and unzipped, but all permissions now are read-only and so Drupal doesn't work at all cause it cannot acess files.
Can anyone tell when I lost my permissions, the right way to migrate to my VDS or (and) how can I manage with my corrupted-permission Drupal now (maybe I just can change them?)
Read only permission is generally fine for a Drupal site, except for the upload folder (it's nomally called files and in can be in sites/default or in sites/YOUR_SITE_CONFIGURATION_FOLDER or wherever you set it to be in admin/config/media/file-system). The files folder, and every subfolder it contains must be writable from the web server, so if your web server is running as the www-data user (the standard user for Apache in Ubuntu, other systems may differ) you can for example do
chmod -R o+w sites/default/files
chown -R www-data sites/default/files
I am running Debian 6 - 64-bit and I am looking to put specific set of permissions on one of a executable binary file.
The file is originally owned by user/group root and holds 0111 set of permissions that only allows execute permissions.
I have set these permissions because I usually do installs for every user I create and this file is automatically copied to the user's home directory when the files are installed. The file is important so I do not want those created users to download or even view the file over FTP, the only thing they are allowed to do is execute.
But since I've set 0111 permissions on the file to achieve what I want, the file is no longer copied to the user's home directory because root cannot read/write the file. What should I do that would still allow root to read/write the file so it is copied over to user's home directory in the automated process but disallow the created user from accessing it. The file is owned by user/group root and after it is copied, it is owned by user/group new-user.
Set the permissions of the original to 511 or 711 (o+r), then before the copy, do umask 666 to remove these permissions from newly created files. The copy will then have permissions 0711 & ~0666 == 0111.
I have a cloud hosting linux solution. I had vsftpd working on it, but after having issues and tinkering with a lot of settings, I now have an issue where users can login using FTP and connect to the correct home directory, navigate within it, download files but they cannot upload files to the server. They get a time out error, which appears to be a permissions error, but I can't narrow it down any more than that. /var/logs/syslog gives nothing away.
The folders belong to the users. The parent www folder is set to 555. Can anyone help with this issue at all?
Cheers,

Try to set the permissions to 755, 555 doesn't allow writing for anyone. Are your user and group different?
You also may need to enable logging for FTP server. The time out error may include some other errors, not only permission denied.
To have extended logging change the variables in your ftp config file:
dual_log_enable=YES
log_ftp_protocol=YES
xferlog_enable=YES
syslog_enable=NO
and check the log file name there.
you must create a folder into user folder (Example : /var/www/user1/upload).
and set permission 777 (Example : chmod 777 /var/www/user1/upload).
then upload file into this folder.
I'm running a Fedora 8 Core server. SSH is enabled and I can login with Transmit (FTP client) on port 22. When logged in, I can successfully upload files to the users home directory. Outside the home directory I can only browse files, not upload/change anything. How can I allow file uploading to a specific directory outside the users home directory?
an easy method is to grant the user rights to the folder you want them to be able to upload to, then add a symlink (link -s) from their home folder to the destination.
You can also just use
scp file user#server:/path
which will let you upload to any directory you have permissions to
file is the file to copy
user & server should be obvious
/path is any destination path on the server which you have rights to; so /home/user/ would be your likely default home folder
You need to make those directories writable by the proper users, or (easier) that user's group. This is of course a huge security hole, so be careful.
HI,
Give the FTP user write permission on the directory where you want to upload your files.
