File permissions upgrading

  • Hi all,

    While upgrading to 4.5 (which I’ve been successful with), I noticed a problem with file and directory permissions.

    If I follow the instructions here, only the user can write on the files (assuming, of course, the user is my own account and not the Apache2 process).

    I had to turn on group (Apache2 process) write permissions for the upgrade to succeed. Afterwards, I had to turn it off again.

    Is this normal or am I doing something wrong?

    I noticed for automatic upgrading (described here), files and directories are changed to 0644 and 0755. Does this mean even for automatic upgrades, I should turn these permissions back to before the upgrade manually (or via some cron job)?

    Thank you!

    Ray
