PHP IDE :: NuSphere Forums :: View topic - [resolved] /opt/local/lib/php/20040412 permission denied?

Posted: Sun Dec 07, 2008 8:17 am

Hi all.

I know next to nothing about Linux although I have a Joyent account for hosting my Facebook applications, and I'm trying to deploy the phpEd debugger module onto the remote server.

I can't PUT the file via SFTP into /opt/local/lib/php/20040412 where I need to. I'm gathering it's a permissions problem but I don't know how to resolve.

Please can someone advise?
TIA!
Matt

Code:

Listing directory /opt/local/lib/php/20040412
put "D:/Downloads/dbg.so-5.2.x" "dbg.so-5.2.x"
/opt/local/lib/php/20040412/dbg.so-5.2.x: open for write: permission denied

Listing directory /opt/local/lib
chmod 0777 "php"
set attrs for /opt/local/lib/php: permission denied

permissions is what should be ruled by the administrator. If it is your ISP, please contact them.

Sorry I forgot to mention but that would be me in this case as this is a virtual server account, with virtualmin/webmin and root access etc.

Additional: I have now used SSH/SUDO to move the file into its place.

Solved!
