I can find plenty of references to this error, but they all point to permission issues, however my permissions appear to be fine as I can modify this folder using nano and SSH.
I'm trying to use RemoteSSH with a custom user account, user
The server is running Debian 11 and nginx
I have key based auth and I connect to the server. When I try to create or remove a file in the web folder (/var/www/html) I get this error message Error: EACCES: permission denied, <what I was trying to do, i.e. rename a file, or delete a file>
I can do all of these things using a standard SSH connection (openSSH built in to Windows 10)
The owner of /var/www/ is set to www-data (recursively)
user is a member of the group www-data
Do I need to do anything in VSCode to update permissions? Am I missing something else?
Here are the exact commands I used:
sudo adduser user www-data
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www
sudo chmod -R 0775 /var/www
OK I did a bit more Googling right after posting this, and I was able to fix this by deleting the .vscode-server folder in the home directory.
https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-remote-release/issues/3399#issuecomment-922935448
I'm not sure if there is an easier way to fix this without doing so, or having to do that every time permissions are changed.

everyone.
I hope that someone can help to answer my question.
I am joining a project in which I have to use various docker containers. I was told that I just needed to use docker-compose to pull down all the necessary containers. I tried this, and got two different errors, based on whether I used sudo or not. My machine is Ubuntu bionic beaver 18.04.4LTS
I have docker-engine installed according to the installation instructions for Bionic on the github page, and docker-compose is likewise installed according to its instructions. I did not create a "docker" group since I have sudo access.
We have two repos that I have to log in to before I can do anything. In order to prevent my passwords from being stored unencrypted in config.json, I followed this guide to set up a secure credential store:
https://www.techrepublic.com/article/how-to-setup-secure-credential-storage-for-docker/
However, rather than asking me for the password and/or passphrase mentioned in this article, the login process makes me enter the actual passwords to the repos. So, the secure credential store may not be working, which might be causing the problem.
At any rate, once I log in and the two commands show login succeeded, I then try to do a
docker-compose pull
on the repos. When I do
sudo docker-compose pull
I get this final error:
docker.errors.DockerException: Credentials store error: StoreError('Credentials store docker-credential-pass exited with "exit status 2: gpg: WARNING: unsafe ownership on homedir '/home/myuser/.gnupg'\ngpg: decryption failed: No secret key".')
an ls of the .gnupg directory is
myuser#myhost$ ls -lA ~ | grep gnupg
drwx------ 4 myuser myuser 226 Feb 9 13:35 .gnupg
gpg --list-secret-keys shows my keypair when I run it as myuser.
I am assuming that what is happening is that because I am running as sudo the user trying to access this directory is root, not myuser, and so it is failing. However, if I leave off the sudo
docker-compose pull
docker.errors.DockerException: Error while fetching server API version: ('Connection aborted.', PermissionError(13, 'Permission denied'))
I am guessing that this is because my normal user doesn't have the ability to connect to the docker daemon's Unix socket.
So, how do I make these play together? Is the answer to add a docker group so that the command still runs as myuser and not as root? or is there another way to do this?
Also, why is my credential store not asking me for the password set by docker-credential-pass or the GPG passphrase? I suspect these two are related. Perhaps the pull is trying to send my authentication tokens over again and can't because it doesn't have access to the secure credentials store.
All of the above are guesses. Does anyone know what is going on here?
Thanking you in advance,
Brad
I just wanted to follow up with a solution to this question that worked for me.
Firstly, you need to add your user to the docker group that was created during docker-engine's installation.
sudo usermod --append --groups docker your_user_name
Because I had already used sudo to try this, there were a few files that ended up being created by root.
So, you have to chown a few things.
sudo chown your_user_name:your_group_name ~/.docker/config.json
Note that for the group name I used
docker
but I'm not sure if that's necessary.
Then, there were files inside the ~/.password-store directory that needed to be changed.
sudo chown -R your_user_name:your_group_name ~/.password-store
Most of these files are already owned by you, but the recorded credentials are not.
Then, the magic that fixed it all. From
https://ask.csdn.net/questions/5153956
you have to do this.
export GPG_TTY=$(tty)
and it is this last that makes gpg work.
Then, you can log in to your repos if you have to without using sudo
docker login -u repo_user_name your_repo_host
and then log in with your repo password.
Note that I don't know why you have to use the repo password instead of using the stored credentials.
Once you log in, you should be able to do a
docker-compose pull
without sudo
from the directory where you want the containers to be placed.
Note that you will probably have to provide your GPG passphrase at first. I'm not sure about this because I had already unlocked the key by following the steps in the above link to check to see if docker-credential-pass had the right credential store password stored.
and that should do it.
I really suck at permissions. I recently installed Drupal on my Ubuntu server and it was working like a charm. Suddenly it got stuck, and I got
There's no internet connection
error on Google Chrome and
Server not found error
on Firefox. However my Apache is still working.
My Drupal is located at /var/www/html/drupal test. However when I type cd drupaltest I got a permission denied error. I changed the permission with:
sudo chmod 660 drupaltest
After that I could get into that directory, but not any directory inside. I am constantly getting permission denied error. I tried adding the -R option, drupaltest/*, and even giving 770. The owner is my current user on the machine, but I still have no idea why I can't access the subdirectories.
Try chown -R owner:group /dirname
After installing yii2, I got the following error.
Some suggests that I should give full permissions to IIS_IUSRS but still to no avail.
You shouldn't need to set the permissions to 777, that is a security problem as it gives read and write access to the world.
It may be that your apache user does not have read/write permissions on the directory.
If you use Ubuntu do this :
Make sure all files are owned by the Apache group and user. In Ubuntu it is the www-data group and user
chown -R www-data:www-data /path/to/webserver/www
Next enabled all members of the www-data group to read and write files
chmod -R g+rw /path/to/webserver/www
The php mkdir() function should now work without returning errors
Running a Kestrel server managed by systemd using www-data user. When trying to send an email using MailKit with TLS enabled I get the following error message:
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path '/var/www/.dotnet/corefx/cryptography/crls' is denied. ---> System.IO.IOException: Permission denied
One solution possibly is to set a home directory for www-data, but that seems counter intuitive.
The call stack indicates that the code (MailKit or one of its dependencies) is trying to build and access a certificate cache.
You can manually create the directory and grant the necessary permissions.
Don't modify /var top directory as that's crazy.
First, you need to recursively create the directory:
mkdir -p /var/www/.dotnet/corefx/cryptography/crls
and give rights to www-data group
(if this is the group that runs your service)
sudo chgrp www-data /var/www/.dotnet/corefx/cryptography/crls
I am trying to deploy OrangeHrm in Ubuntu Server but getting the following errors..

I have changed the file accessing permission as
"sudo chmod 777 orangehrm" and the folder is in 777 mode, still the errors exist.
Thanks..
For me it helped to change the the owner of the corresponding directory to www-data:
Go to the directory your web page data is in (usually /var/www/YOUR_SITE_NAME): cd /var/www/YOUR_SITE_NAME
Change the owner to www-data: sudo chown -R www-data . Alternatively, you can change the group, too e.g. to you username's group, in order to be able to access the files from you account: sudo chown -R www-data:YOUR_USERNAME . Note that in both cases the dot at the end of the command is part of the command!
You shouldn't be setting all folders to 777 for a web facing site. Run something like the following from your orangehrm folder;
sudo chmod 760 lib/confs lib/logs symfony/config symfony/apps/orangehrm/config symfony/cache symfony/log
That will give you read/write/execute for the owner and then read/write for the group and then no permissions for all others.
Then make sure the owner of the orangehrm folder is your web user ie, www-data
I would suggest confirming the permissions for those folders with the orangehrm forum.
ie, http://forum.orangehrm.com/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=2531&p=3452&hilit=chmod&sid=e53a96e31a32ce4cbfa7998f43fdfc95#p3452
you should include -R in your command, like :
sudo chmod -R 777 orangehrm
