Re: Cannot write to the web directory (Apache Users)

One thing I didn't see mentioned in the replies is if the DAC on the folder is set to world writable (and I agree with all the responses that say this is a terrible idea) but it still LOOKS like a permissions issue (access denied or other unexplained failures) did you check if MAC (SELuinux, AppArmor) was getting in the way?

Ok , thanks , it doesn’t appear to be a permissions issue. I will check the php and the apache configuration.

This is an extremely bad idea. You should never write to the docroot from your application. Write outside the docroot instead, and use group write permissions.

I'm not sure, but FreeBSD happens to be different from Linux, so please change the directory group to www as well.
Permissions of 700, 750, 755, 770 or 775 should be sufficient.
