Let me comment on this. It is supposed, that an unpacked tar.gz should not
require changing of $racktables_gwdir to work. But in case of a custom
directory layout the only file, that needs to be changed is user's secret.php.
What is the directory with index.php on the server? This season's best practice
is to move RackTables out of the wwwroot like described in my previous reply.

This looks like the archive contents was first unpacked and then uploaded to
the server with some default attributes set for every file. That would also
explain failing LLDP (every file in deviceconfig besides the switch.secrets.php
must be executable).

Yes. This old LiveVLANs code takes some efforts to get dismissed, it's best to
ignore it for now.
