Permissions Problems

Sometimes the user that the web server runs as does not have the permissions it needs in order for FogBugz Setup to do its thing. Use this guide to set these permissions.

On Linux platforms, run these commands:

    chgrp apache FileUploads
    chmod g+rw FileUploads
    touch Accessories/application.data
    chmod g+rw Accessories/application.data
    chgrp -R apache Website Accessories
    chmod -R g+r Website Accessories
    chmod +x Accessories/fogbugzmaintd

On OS X, run these commands:

    chgrp www FileUploads
    chmod g+rw FileUploads
    touch Accessories/application.data
    chmod g+rw Accessories/application.data
    chgrp -R www Website Accessories
    chmod -R g+r Website Accessories
    chmod +x Accessories/fogbugzmaintd

An example of an error that may be fixed by the above steps is:

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: adodb_mysql in /path/to/your/fogbugz/Website/adodb/adodb.inc.php on line 3211
