Error on install - wrong file permissions

[Michael Oeser]

Hi everybody,

I´m new to Revive Adserver but I used to work with OpenX for several years. I try to install Revive Adserver on my server and I get an error telling me three directories are not writable. I already changed the permissions to 777 for those directories as well as the directory they are in.

When I started the installation it was six directories with wrong permissions and so I changed them all to 777. Revive Adserver now excepts three out of those six but still three are recognized as not writable.

Any idea, why that happens and how to get rid of this issue?

Thanks
Michael

Hi Michael,

Try recursive chowning your folder to the user your httpd runs under, e.g. chown -R apache:apache /var/www/your/path/to/revive

That solved the issue. Thanks a lot.
