Flux question related chmod -R

[Alexandria]

Hello there,

Im sorry to ask this noob question but i would like to know if it is okay to give chmod -R 0777 to those folder?

data/tmp

data/logs

data/itemshop

Or is it enough just chmod 0777 without -r? Im wondering for security reason.

Thanks.

Well the -R switch makes it so it applies 777 to anything existing inside the folder.

With a fresh install of FluxCP, there's nothing in there except the index.php which blocks users from viewing the directory. 777 would be fine if you didn't create anything post-installation, which shouldn't be possible since flux needs to create the files for flux to function.
