Flux question related chmod -R

[Alexandria 53]

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.
