strange upload error..

[zOrP]

some of my users can upload..
but some get this error..

[L] (20:20:04) 350 Restarting at 0. Send STORE or RETRIEVE to initiate transfer.
[L] (20:20:04) STOR kalich-0.05.tar.gz
[L] (20:20:04) 550 kalich-0.05.tar.gz: Permission denied.
[L] (20:20:04) Transfer Failed

They can see all folders exept /REQUESTS
and /REQUESTS is the only folder they can upload and make folders in.. :-(
any ideas...??

All dirs are write-protected by default. You need to change the dir permissions (once) for every dir you want uploads to be possible.

site chmod 777 <dirname>

This is very basic stuff. I suggest you check out the documentation and the knowledge base once in a while.

i already did
SITE CHMOD 777 on all sections..
but still the error..
for example
they can make dir in /MP3
but not in /MP3/Week_01/
am i supposed to site chmod every under dir..?

or what ?
tried to look in dokumentation.. couldn't find it..

Use FlashFXP (or any other client's) recursive CHMOD function.

You are indeed supposed to CHMOD every dir.
You could also configure ioFTPD and ioA (assuming that you've used ioA to create the Week_01 dir) and change the default directory permissions to 777.

An old post.

but i thought i would paste my solution, if anyone else should have this problem.


i just edited in ioftpd.ini

Default_Directory_Attributes = 777 0:0

that did the trick.
the default is 755.. :-D
