Permissions

The installer will check for correct permissions during the installation. If you need to fix the file permissions, this guide will help.

Pagekit needs to be able to write to the following files and directories and each of their subdirectories.

File/FolderDescription
/appTo access the system files.
/packagesTo install and update extensions.
/storageStores binary files you upload to your site.
/tmpStores temporary, cache and log files.
config.phpInstaller will write to this file.

The actual permission settings depend on the user that PHP and the webserver are running on and the owner of the folders. If your webserver has problems with the CHMOD 755, you can also try 775.

Important You should always avoid 777 permissions on your production webserver, since this will allow anyone, who has access to the machine, to edit the files.
