folder permisison

edited May 2007 in Vanilla 1.0 Help
i find the permission for the folder that holds the filebrowser annoying... after few weeks of installing it and running it great in my site... someone uploaded "search.php" which allowed that user to control that folder... (god I hate c99shell team... they're the doers" I actually deleted it and rechecked my website for abuses and backed up my data and everything is back to normal. but think about it as in "what if i didn't get there in time and that guy deleted some important data?" it'll be a waste... Please try to find another way to browse and thumbnail stuff

  • The best practice is just to change permissions when you're thumbnailing and change them back afterwards. It's impossible to generate thumbnails without the apache user having write access. That's not Mark's fault.
  • seems fair enough... i guess i gotta work on my weak memory to memorise this... bohohoo
