permission problems with folderdata.xml

30 Jul 2008, 08:54

Hello,

I've permissions problems with files called folderdata.xml when cache is enabled. When viewing a gallery, I can read the following error message :
Errors:

Can't write to file /home/user/domains/mywebsite.com/public_html/portfolio/folderdata.xml

You can disable this notification from admin config, and your gallery will still work,
but it will run much faster if you set permissions!
Of course, I don't have any "folderdata.xml" file in /home/user/domains/mywebsite.com/public_html/portfolio/.

I can reproduce this problem doing the following actions : In my example, the file "/home/user/domains/mywebsite.com/public_html/portfolio/content/mygallery/folderdata.xml" has owner ftp/ftp and it's permissions are -rw-r--r--. Moreover, I cannot modify it's permissions manually.

What's wrong, doctor ?

Thanks in advance !

ps. The problem did not appear when the cache is desactivated...

We are aware of this issue, and we are working on a solution. For now, I don't think the issue is critical in any way. I even think the error might disappear once you refresh the gallery?

Yes, it disappears when I refresh, but sometimes, and this error appears again later... If I reload many times the page, it may appear again if I remember correctly... Strange, for me... I haven't understood what precise action was causing this error...
