Hi,
I am at the base of an FTP thingy i'm building, and i noticed that
it would only work if i chmod the folder 777, i thought to remember
correctly that previously on another site chmod 744 was enough,
now it isn't.
Am i mistaking, and should it always be 777 ? And isn't a chmodded
777 folder much more vulnerable?

Most definitely more vulnerable.
You want 755, not 744. You need the x bit set. It should look like
this:
drwxr-xr-x ... ...
The x on a directory means search, not execute. If you can't search
the directory, you can't read the files in it.
If you want people to be able to find the files but not list the
directory when they're on the server, you can set the directory as 711
which would look like:
drwx--x--x ... ...

Depends on your hosting company. If they allow it, yes.
If the php application created it, the owner will be the user running the
application - in the case of a web application, it would be the webserver's
userid. So the application would be able to chmod the directory.
However, if the directory is created by ftp (as another user), no, you won't be
able to chmod the directory - at least not without going through a lot of hoops.

It depends on the ftp server, actually. Our ftp server correctly sets
the permissions for you when you push. Seems your ISP has something
set incorrectly.
No, he was asking how to upload files with PHP - not with FTP.

Is there a possibility to upload files via PHP without Chmodding, and
keep the same group / permissions on uploaded files as those uploaded
with, say, DreamWeaver or WS_FTP ?
Frizzle.
(E.g. with ftp_put() wich i can't seem to get working.)
Only if you can ftp in as the web server.
It depends on the ftp server, actually. Our ftp server correctly sets
the permissions for you when you push. Seems your ISP has something
set incorrectly.
No, he was asking how to upload files with PHP - not with FTP.

Sorry, kind of lost it here; is it possible to FTP via PHP w/o any

So i could mail a zipfile to a client, tell them to unpack it and
upload it, and
have the upload script up and running ... ?

Frizzle,
No, you can't upload via PHP. FTP is a system service, just as telnet, ssh and
web server are.
When you ftp a file to the server, the owner of the file is the userid who
uploaded the file (signed into ftp). But when you upload via PHP, you're using
the web server, and the owner is the userid of the server itself.

It's easy to ftp or to upload via PHP. Both work quite well (unless the
server's configuration is screwed up). It's when you try to mix the two you
start running into permission problems and need to chmod.

Ok, you just need to ensure you have the original directory permissions set
properly, then. In a typical installation the directory would be owned by the
webserver's userid with permissions of 755.
And I hope I didn't confuse you. You can upload via HTTP, or with the ftp PUT
command. In either case the file ends up on the server. But how it gets there
is much different.

Ok, you just need to ensure you have the original directory permissions set
properly, then. In a typical installation the directory would be owned by the
webserver's userid with permissions of 755.
And I hope I didn't confuse you. You can upload via HTTP, or with the ftp PUT
command. In either case the file ends up on the server. But how it gets there
is much different.

When i create a new folder, either via Plesk, Dreamweaver or WS_FTP,

*Should be* is the key. If your host has things set ip properly, then yes you
should be OK. But if not...

Frizzle,
It depends on how you want to do things. If you're going to be the only one
uploading, you can do ftp or http uploads. If you have users who may not be
familiar with ftp, you should do http uploads.
The downside of http uploads is you can't synchronize files between your local
copy and the website with products like Dreamweaver.
You can create and delete directories in PHP also, assuming your host hasn't
disabled these functions and you have the appropriate permissions. So that's
not a problem.
It's all in how you want to maintain your site.

Hmm, hope i'm not back at the start (the chmodding part) i get an
error:
Warning: move_uploaded_file(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The
script whose uid is 10008 is not allowed to access / owned by uid 0 in
/home/httpd/vhosts/host.com/httpdocs/test/admin/ftp2.php on line 17
Here is some more debugging info:Array

[type] => image/jpeg
[tmp_name] => /tmp/phpejdmGr

)
Does this have something to do with the Chmodding again ? (Please tell
me it doesn't...)

Frizzle,
It depends on how you want to do things. If you're going to be the only one
uploading, you can do ftp or http uploads. If you have users who may not be
familiar with ftp, you should do http uploads.
The downside of http uploads is you can't synchronize files between your local
copy and the website with products like Dreamweaver.
You can create and delete directories in PHP also, assuming your host hasn't
disabled these functions and you have the appropriate permissions. So that's
not a problem.
It's all in how you want to maintain your site.

It's meant for a user based site; users with certain priviledges are
allowed to add news and files to the site. No synchronizing
needed. Mostly images and mp3's, maybe some docs etc.
Frizzle.
In that case I would suggest http uploads.
Maybe the easiest way is to have an admin page where you can let PHP create the
root directory(s) you wish, then let the main part of the site upload into these
directories and, if necessary, create new directories.
If the webserver creates them it will be the owner, also.

Does this have something to do with the Chmodding again ? (Please tell
me it doesn't...)
Frizzle.
I have no idea - don't know what code you're using.
But it looks like you're trying to access the system root directory ('/') -
which is owned by root. You can't do it.

Does this have something to do with the Chmodding again ? (Please tell

Frizzle.
I have no idea - don't know what code you're using.

OK, who owns the directory, and what are its flags? And what's the userid of
the webserver?

Well, the Apache user is usually (but not always) the owner of the document root
directory. Or you can ask your webhost.

try to change the temp directory to own buy your user. Your /tmp

I asked my webhost, but they told me uploading
a folder and having it running uploads etc. is not
possible on Linux by default. Folders should be
chmod 777 or chmod 755.

Yes and no. It depends on how they have their folders configured.
However, obviously they have it configured so you can't do it. But you should
still be able to create the folder in PHP from a web page (so it's running as
the Apache user) and upload to it. The folder should then have the Apache user
as the owner.

What happens if you leave off the 0755? That may be restricted in your
location. Just try it with the default.
If it still doesn't work, looks like it's time to find another host. This one
has too many restrictions.

But unfortunately, it looks like your host has too many things locked down for
you to be able to upload files through the website.
I can partially understand their reasoning in a shared environment. But at the
same time, other hosting companies can do it. So why can't they?

Yes, I see what you're saying. However, I don't think it should make a
difference like you think. Whether it's an image that's been sampled or a file
that's been uploaded, the Apache userid is doing the work.
The difference I can see is that the move_uploaded_files probably calls a system
function to actually move the files (don't know - I haven't looked). Obviously
the pix site doesn't do this when it resizes the pix; don't know what it does
before that, though.
the other possibility is they have the other server configured differently -
either PHP or the OS (or both). phpinfo() could tell you if there are PHP
differences.

function to actually move the files (don't know - I haven't looked). Obviously
the pix site doesn't do this when it resizes the pix; don't know what it does
before that, though.
the other possibility is they have the other server configured differently -
either PHP or the OS (or both). phpinfo() could tell you if there are PHP
differences.

Sorry for the delay - I missed this one when you posted earlier in the week.
Well, it isn't how I would have done it, but it should work.
First thing I would have done was to move the uploaded file from the temp
directory a working directory (move_uploaded_file() ). This gets it completely
out of the temporary director (which could be something like /tmp) where there
may be limitations on what you can do with it.
Then I'd do the resizing or whatever I need in my workarea.
I'm also not sure why you're ftping back to yourself (at least I assume it's
yourself). Why not just store the file where you want it?

Not really. When I need something like this I just code it up. But they're
typically special purpose and would need changing for your system.

Yes, to start I'd move it from the temporary directory with
move_uploaded_file(). Then I'd do my work on it and write it directly to the
filesystem with the file functions such as fopen(), etc.

In that case the PHP application didn't create it. FTP did. It may have been

I should be clearer. Apache can run with suExec, and often does in a
shared hosting environment. This means that the particular apache
process which runs a script runs with the uid and gid of that script.
The host will then ensure that the files in the user's directory have
the correct uid and gid bits set. This means that the uid of an ftp'd
file and a file created by php run through apache will be the same.
Just a foot note to the main point of the thread.
From http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/suexec.html
The suEXEC feature -- introduced in Apache 1.2 -- provides Apache users the ability to run CGI and
SSI programs under user IDs different from the user ID of the calling web-server. Normally, when a
CGI or SSI program executes, it runs as the same user who is running the web server.
Used properly, this feature can reduce considerably the security risks involved with allowing users
to develop and run private CGI or SSI programs. However, if suEXEC is improperly configured, it
can cause any number of problems and possibly create new holes in your computer's security. If
you aren't familiar with managing setuid root programs and the security issues they present, we
highly recommend that you not consider using suEXEC.

Thanks for the info, Fletch. I knew there was something different about SuEXEC,
but wasn't sure what it was.
So he may need to either chown the scripts to the Apache process owner, or
create the directories with the same owner as the script?
