The problem I had stemmed from a corrupt installation of Plesk. Apologies if I alarmed anybody thinking of using this. I should reiterate that I have used it many times before and it has worked perfectly - thanks again Neville.Carlosnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4775033873078313696.post-22039387595393919662010-02-07T12:16:13.404+00:002010-02-07T12:16:13.404+00:00It does seem odd that some directory permission se...It does seem odd that some directory permission settings should "break" plesk. Actually I have never come across a situation where I have had to "re-build" Plesk. I don't run 9.3 as 8 works perfectly well and ironicly I did not want to break things! So sorry but can't test.Neville Dasturhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07022115399830745976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4775033873078313696.post-72541310783094500482010-02-07T00:44:18.301+00:002010-02-07T00:44:18.301+00:00Many thanks to Neville for this post.

I have used it on numerous occasions and it has worked a treat to ensure Joomla works properly.<br /><br />However, more recently on a new server running Plesk 9.3.0, these commands appear to break Plesk. I have had to rebuild twice.<br /><br />Having said that, it could just be an unstable version of Plesk - but this does appear to trigger the break.Carlosnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4775033873078313696.post-23544953442490929082008-10-01T23:05:00.000+01:002008-10-01T23:05:00.000+01:00hi. thanks for sharing! but .. it seems this wont ...hi. thanks for sharing! but .. it seems this wont work for me. i run a home made ubuntu linux server (no plesk or foreighn hostet crap). my apache runs as www-data, my proftpd runs with umask of 002 002 pretty much out of the box (and does a good umask when used with a common ftp client), and joomla 1.5.7 . i set the SETGUID (Sticky Bit) on the joomla-root (and all subdirs) too, and if creating subdirs by hand it will work quite fine. but whenever i try to install a joomla-plugin with the joomla-web-installer the new created subdirs "look like umasked by 022" - STILL!! i dont get it WHY they are still umasked by 022 !! WHERE ?? i even set the apache to umask 002 - any suggestions ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4775033873078313696.post-66062649597904281332008-03-01T17:02:00.000+00:002008-03-01T17:02:00.000+00:00Thanks, I'll have a look at that.But note that the...Thanks, I'll have a look at that.<BR/><BR/>But note that the above doesn't set the directories as 777. But I take the point that they are writtable to any apache process. If I am not mistaken this is not a problem as plesk sets a base dir for each virtual host and so a user could not read/write outside of their directory AFAIK.Neville Dasturhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07022115399830745976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4775033873078313696.post-45932324191396448262008-03-01T15:50:00.000+00:002008-03-01T15:50:00.000+00:00I suggest try to install mod_suphp and configure p...I suggest try to install mod_suphp and configure per domain.
