First time posting, just joined tch for family website.
I am having some problems in the File Manager with changing the permissions on a folder.
I installed gallery, and the albums folder I was suppose to change using chmod -R 777. I couldnt find a way to do a recursive chmod through the File Manager, so just changed that folder to 777. Now I have a subfolder inside the root album folder that I cant change its permissions. When I change them, it returns saying that the permissions were changed, but when I re-select that folder, its permissions are the same as before.
My understanding for this is because the subfolder was created by php through gallery, which runs as a different user, so I can't change the permissions on the folder.
The permission settings next to the name of the folder are 755, but when you select the 'change permissions' link, the settings are set to 750.
So now when I try to upload any file straight to that folder through the file manager, it gets a permission denied error trying to move ( mv ) the file from the temp upload folder to my folder.
When going through the gallery upload, I can upload smaller files, but when I try to upload larger files ( 2M+ ), I see similar results, where it doesnt get moved to my subfolder.
So my questions:
1) What is the php.ini setting for max file upload size set at?
2) How can I perform a recursive chmod without shell access?
3) How can I change the permissions on these subfolders within my gallery root folder? Deleting them is an option, as long as I can get permissions working on these subfolders for the future.
Thanks you for any help. I have been very happy with tch.
