Well it depends... if that is the exact parent where you are making the
new directory then it should work. But it's not... you are doing it in
the subdirectory "test", or "test/$id" or "test/$id/$somethingelse". It
seems to do it recursively:
chown -R apache:apache htdocs
Note: this will recursively descend into htdocs and change the
permissions on every file directory and file found. You may want to
limit this to directories only:
chown apache:apache htdocs
cd htdocs
chown apache:apache `find -type d`
You may not want this level of ownership change at all. You might just
want to target the appropriate directories. In which case issue chown
for each directory in question.
Cheers,
Rob.
