File Permissions
Im in the process of creating a web based frontend for a program called ASK (Active Spam Killer - http://a-s-k.sourceforge.net) and am currently running into a problem. Currently there is a perl based web front end, but it lacks functionality, and is rather bland, although it does work, and it works without changing any file permissions. The problem im running into is that PHP requires me to make changes to file permissions (ASK files are located OUTSIDE of the web tree) which might end up causing problems as far as security and privacy of email. Has anyone come to any reasonable answer for this type of problem as im sure its a issue for other programs people write.

File Permissions....
I've read the stuff concerning writing to a text file and the related file permission issues on this forum.I have a script that does just that, it takes user-entered data from a Web Form and dumps it to a text file on a server. This works fine on my private server, but is giving me the error...."Could not open stream.Permission denied on Line..." on the company server...The Company machine uses Windows XP. I've tried talking to the System Administrator regarding the Permissions,but he says that giving READ/WRITE/EXECUTE Permissions could create Security Issues. I have been told that previously,a script written in ASP had been used that did exactly the same thing i.e writing to the text file, but there were no File Permissions needed to be set!

Problem With File Permissions : PHP / FTP
My php-script makes directories and puts files in it. But via FTP'ing, I can't delete those files anymore. Also, I need to put a whole bunch of existing files into these, 'made-by-php' directories, and that seems impossible by means of FTP. I get an 'access denied' error every time.

File Permissions After Copy()
This function basically creates a new dir in a determined location and copies the files from an established dir to the new dir. It copies the files and creates the folder ok, bit it sets the file permissons to 755 for the new folder and file contents. I then get a 550 error if I try to delete or chmod them. Any suggestions? I get permission errors in the script if I use the chgrp and chmod functions also. PHP Code:

Change File Permissions
i'm trying to create a file management tool online using php. Everytime i copy or create files or folders though it assigns ownership of the new files or folders to the apache id. i tried using backticks, exec, shell_exec and the php shell commands. php safe mode is off. i can create the files and folders using shell commands and have tried to change ownership using chown but that doesn't seem to do anything. any insight can help. the goal is to be able to create these files with the same admin user ownership as all the other files on the site.

File Write Permissions
I'm trying to get an open source PHP app working for my company. It's giving me the following custom error: FreeMED was unable to create a file to record the healthy status of the system. The FreeMED directory should be owned by the user that the webserver is running as... Usually this is 'apache'. You can also fix this by giving universal write access to the home directory of FreeMED. But that is not advisable from a security standpoint. I've narrowed it down to the line of PHP that's breaking it here: $test = CreateObject('FreeMED.FreeMEDSelfTest'); As far as I can tell, I've made the directory it's using as open as possible and it's still giving me that error. The owner is apache (user and group) and the permissions are (temporarily) set at 0777 (universal read/write). Is there some PHP or Apache configuration that needs changed to allow PHP this kind of permission?

Upload File Permissions Problem
I've moved an existing site (which I didn't write) from a apache/php/mysql host under windows to a linux apache/php/mysql host. I've sorted out most problems except one. There is an upload function on the site, which uploads files via POST to temp folder and then moves it into a folder on the host using php function move_uploaded_file. Under windows this works fine but on the linux host the uploaded file is created with 600 permissions so it cannot be accessed later by site visitors. The folder it is uploaded into has 755 permissions. Is there a way of setting the default file permissions so each uploaded file can be set to say 644 or do I need to chmod each file after upload?

Set Up The Permissions So That My Script Can Simply Fopen A File For Writing.
I am rather new to PHP and a relative newbie to Linux too. I have a webserver at home (Apache 2.0.48 on SuSe 9.0, PHP4). I have some scripts, one of them needs to be able to create logfiles somewhere on my machine. It must also later be able to read from and write to these files again. Sofar I get a permission error. I tried chmodding 666 or 777 the directory in which the files could reside, to no avail. How do I set up the permissions so that my script can simply fopen a file for writing. Or if that's not the issue, what am I doing wrong or overlooking ? The errors: Warning: fopen(logfileslog1.txt): failed to open stream: Permission denied in script1.php on line 142 Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in script1.php on line 154 Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in script1.php on line 161 It's the first I am puzzled about, the 2nd and 3rd are a logical consequence. By the way, reading from and writing to a file I have previously created myself with exactly the names I tried to get created by the script (echoed the name, ok) is no problem at all. So I don't think it has much to do with a safemode or open_basedir setting. I also tried creating the scripts in the same dir the script itself resides. Did not work either.

Win98, Apache & Php4.3 Installation
I tried to install php as apache module. Previously it has been cgi. WIn 98 is not supported but cgi worked fine, anyway. I tried to everything according to instructions in php.net, but still it didn't work. - I put php4ts.dll to windows/system32 directory. - I configured http.conf: - I used the path where I had put php download (PHP 4.3.3 zip package [6,180Kb]). - I commented these three lines that were for the CGI-install: # ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/" # AddType application/x-httpd-php .php # Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe" But Apache didn't start. It died because of this line: LoadModule php4_module "c:/HERE_WAS_MYPATH/sapi/php4apache2.dll" http://fi2.php.net/manual/en/install.apache2.php If you would like to use PHP as a module in Apache 2.0, be sure to move php4ts.dll for PHP 4, or php5ts.dll for PHP 5, to winnt/system32 (for Windows NT/2000) or windows/system32 (for Windows XP), overwriting any older file. You need to insert these two lines to your Apache httpd.conf configuration file to set up the PHP-Module for Apache 2.0: Example 3-8. PHP and Apache 2.0 as Module ; For PHP 4 do something like this: LoadModule php4_module "c:/php/sapi/php4apache2.dll" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php ; For PHP 5 do something like this: LoadModule php5_module "c:/php/sapi/php5apache2.dll" AddType application/x-httpd-php .php Note: Remember to substitute the c:/php/ for your actual path to PHP in the above examples. Take care to use either php4apache2.dll or php5apache2.dll in your LoadModule directive and notphp4apache.dll or php5apache.dll as the latter ones are designed to run with Apache 1.3.x. Warning Don't mix up your installation with dll files from different PHP versions . You have the only choice to use the dll's and extensions that ship with your downloaded PHP version.

.php Files - Permissions Are Set Public Readable - So Can Public Get To See Actual Raw File?
As a newbie to PHP is it in anyway possible for a casual web surfer to actually get to see the PHP behind my .php file. E.g. if index.php contained PHP code to check if the page had been called with a variable such as "password", is there anyway a public member can get to see the raw php file and therefore see what the password is? index.php might be: if ($_REQUEST[password]="secret") {[color=blue] >Then show one page[/color] else[color=blue] >show another page[/color] } So if a user visits with index.php?password=secret they get to see the secret page. But as the index.php has to have file permission set so that anyone can read it, I'm worried that the public can just somehow view the file and learn the password.

Permissions - 644
I had a nice php application running on my server here at home, and I uploaded it to a shared public type server and it started to break all over the place. It turns out that some scripts required higher permissions that others, but I can't figure out what the difference is. They all read from the database. Some write to the database, but not all the ones that require higher permissions do. I don't understand what it is about some scripts that require execute permissions while other do not. And I don't really understand who at the server is the owner and who is the group and who is the world. And last why did all these scripts work with 644 on my server here even for people accessing it from outside the LAN and what's different about the server farm?

XML With PHP Permissions
I am playing around with the idea of writing a xml based cms, and would like it to be able to be used on hostings where you do not have the ability to password protect directories. Would a simple permissions check at the top of the file be enough to enure it is not read? <? if( ! authentication check){exit();} ?> If I then call all my xml files say abc.xml.php they would not be able to be viewed externally. Say I then read in the files, and replaced the authentication with empty '' Is that likely to work? If so should I put the <? xml version="1.0"> before or after?

PHP And IIS Permissions
It's been a long time since I've asked any techie questions on Usenet but I am under pressure to finish a project and the following issue has me stumped. I appreciate that it's a bit long-winded but I'd be much obliged if anyone could shed any light... I am currently developing a PHP-based site for a client on IIS. It might be worth pointing out here that, from a Linux background, I am no expert on IIS or NTFS permissions. The site includes an /admin/ folder that I wish to secure with a password. The contents of this folder includes non-web files that I wish to protect, so application-level password protection implemented in PHP is not suitable. To secure the folder at the IIS/NTFS level, I enabled a "WWW Password" in a web control panel (HCPanel) for the admin folder. Am I right in thinking that this would probably create an IUSR account on the server, and modify the admin folder's ACL to restrict access to this account only? Anyway, this works great for static content and some PHP files, but I have come across the following issue... When a PHP file in the protected area (e.g. /admin/index.php) tries to include() or require() a PHP file outside that protected area (e.g. /include/config.php), an error occurs: Warning: main(../include/config.php) [function.main]: failed to create stream: No such file or directory in c:websitesclientusernameclientdomain.comadmin index.php on line 3 Fatal error: main() [function.main]: Failed opening required '../include/config.php' (include_path='.;c:php4pear') in c:websitesclientusernameclientdomain.comadmin index.php on line 3 This occurs only when the admin area is protected; removing the protection allows the script to run normally. Changing '../include/config.php' to an absolute path changes the first error to a "Permission Denied" warning. To me, it's logical that /include/config.php might not be able to include /admin/index.php as it does not have permissions, but why does the 'priviledged' user /admin/index.php not have access to /include/config.php? I recognise that there are ways to work around this e.g. creating a copy of the included files under the admin folder, or resorting to application-level password protection, but I'd hope that there is a more elegant resolution.

Permissions
I have created a system (replication of old project), that I am using as the base of something that needs to be done for a client. There are projects, and there are clients. Some clients have permissions to whatever projects they have permissions to, and can't use the one's they don't have permission to. I created a table for permissions, which takes the project id and name, the clients id and name. It inserts them into a "permissions table". I had an idea, and when I sought to implement it, it did not work. I have 2 areas to change permissions. If you are a client, you have an area called project permissions. The idea is to pull the name's, of ALL the projects, and show there names on the screen with check boxes beside them. If they are allowed to use that project, it's checked, if not it's unchecked. They can alter the check boxes as needed, then they submit, and it does all the necessary "alterations" to the permissions table. If you are in the project view, you have an area called "Client Permissions". The idea is the pull the name's, of ALL the clients, and show there names on the screen with check boxes beside them. If they are allowed to view that project they are checked, if not they are unchecked. They can alter the check boxes as needed, then they submit and it does all the necessary "alterations" to the permissions table. When I first created the idea behind the check boxes, I thought about it and presented the idea, and rough sketches to the client. He was happy about the idea, and wanted me to implement it. I went ahead and sat down to do it, and my mind when blank, I really have no idea "how" to implement the idea. I went ahead and started with the projects. I have a link that says "Client Permissions". They click on that and are taken to clientpermissions.php which is the page that holds the script for showing the check box list of names of clients. However, I ran into a problem. If I go ahead and pull all the data from the "clients" table, and show there names on the screen, each one with a check box beside it, that check box name will be the id number of the client to be able to identify which client it is. Then the value is either allowed or disallowed. The problem now comes that I can't figure out how to check the permissions table with EACH client name, to see if they have a permission record for that project. I will run into the same problem when I try to update all of the client lists. I could look through it, the one's that are enabled automatically get a database record for permissions, with the information. However the issue is when the system get's the results. I have a list of those who they want enabled, and the one's they want disabled. I have to somehow figure out how to set it up. I am thinking for that I could delete all project permissions related to that one project, then just re-enter the ones that are enabled, ignoring the ones that are disabled. That will give the permissions for that project reset each time. That part I can come to a solution for. In the end I have a current problem. As I mentioned above, I can get the names of the clients out on the screen with check boxes. I can also make the name the id number, and the value either allowed, or disallowed. That is fine, and I can definitely work that out. What can I do to check the client to see if they are enabled or disabled. I am afraid of resources for one reason. For instance. I could have 1. hit the clients table and get all the data 2. Display all there names with check boxes. 3. For each check box hit the permissions table to see if there is a record, if there is mark the x, if there isn't don't. Sounds pretty simple to me, but then I am worried about it making that many database calls. If there are (for example), 50 clients. When they load that page it's going to make a total of 51 calls on that one page (1 call to the clients table, 50 calls to the permissions table). This same issue is going to be encountered when I begin to deal with the clients, and try to allow them project permissions from that console. I will be able to solve that problem however I solve this one, but I need some advice on solving this one. Any advice is greatly appreciated?

755 Permissions
I need to use unlink,fopen functions. The problem is that these functions needs to be executed in subdirectories, which have 755 permissions (writable just for a user). I could change the perms manually, but I don't wanna do that - thare are too many of them. I figured that I could execute that script as a user. Since php is running as "nobody" I also changed the script's owner to nobody- but didn't really changed anything.
