If you are on a shared (hosted) server, you probably couldn't use these methods, since generally such systems prevent changes of groups and ownership. Otherwise anyone on the serever could change ownership of files and directories.On 8/7/07, Francois Sabot <francois.sabot@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:2- DokuWiki creates page and namespace using the Apache server. Thus, all the files belong to the Apache group/user where I am hosting. Would it be possible that DW directly assigns the owner of page to someone else (or add a group) than Apache ? Thanks Francois -- DokuWiki mailing list - more info at http://wiki.splitbrain.org/wiki:mailinglist1. haven't used this plugin 2. You can do this if you have admin access to the server (or can request groups to be created), but it is tricky to get right if you don't have a good understanding of unix permissions and their security implications. You will need to do at least the following (details left up to the user): - set SGID or SUID bits on certain directories - in dokuwiki's config files, you will need to configure the default permission options that need to be set for directories that dokuwiki creates - make sure that the user that the apache binary runs as is in the group that has read access to all of dokuwiki's directory and read/write access to the data directory (and the conf files if you want to use the admin gui)
