Hello, In /conf/dokuwiki.php we have: $conf['fmode'] = 0644; //set file creation mode $conf['dmode'] = 0755; //set directory creation mode So during the install process several files including the "local settings" file is created with owner www-data and the above masks. Is there a way to change the fmode to rw-rw-rw- and dmode to 777 before running the install script? The issue I keep getting is that soon after the install a file gets created in the data/cache/1/ directory as www-data:www-data which I cannot delete as my regular user since the directory /1/ was generated as rwxr-xr-x by dukuwiki. I can ask root, but I don't want to bother him everytime to ask him to rm stuff for me too much... Ivan -- DokuWiki mailing list - more info at http://www.dokuwiki.org/mailinglist
