Posted by Gumbee, 01-14-2011, 08:04 PM I can login into my account, but anything I try to do to the /var/www/ will give me a 550 error. Any suggestions? I can login and everything, but I just can't do anything, like it's read only. My user I created and logged in with belongs to admin, mysql, and ftp usergroups.
Posted by Gumbee, 01-14-2011, 10:10 PM It has something to do with permissions, I chowned /var/www/ to my user and it worked fine I could upload and stuff, but then the website wouldn't work. So I had to chown it back.
