Title: I'm so close to hosing a website from my 321...but
Post by: vdpd2005 on October 13, 2010, 08:29:38 PM
I have fun-plug installed, activated ssh, created a folder and subdirectories for the web page directly under the volume_1 folder, and this is where I'm stuck. I'm supposed to put in an index.html file in the folder called "www" which is under volume_1. Thing is I can't drag and drop it in. I get a "you do not have permission to perform this action" message. I can't put anything into this directory or its subdirectories. I've tried to open my index.html file through notepad as an administrator and "save as" into the "www" directory...nothing. The only thing I can think of that I haven't tried is to use the ssh commands to copy the file in. The only coding I know is some basic DOS though, i don't know if the commands are the same here.

Anyone know what to do from here? I'm on a Windows 7 system

You need to move it in the putty terminal you have open using the mv command. I'm not a pro with linux but I believe since fun_plug is using that folder it needs administrative right? I'm just guessing, but try moving the folder using terminal commands.

you could also try adding:

chmod 777 www

(where www is your web folder located in your box, it could be /HD_a2/www, or /HD_a2/ffp/path_to_web_folder_www etc...)

add the chmod code in your fun_plug file - up top under the first 'echo' command

or near the bottom where it says #run commands

if that doesn't work, you will have to either ftp, ssh, telnet, putty, etc., into it :)

good luck!

If need to check who owns the folders you are trying to copy to.  Most likely, those folders belong to root.  Since you are not "root" on your Windows 7 machine, you're going to get a message saying that you don't have permission to copy to those folders.

SSH into your DNS-321 and navigate to the directory containing the www directory and type

ls-l | more

If the www folder is owned by root, you'll need to change it.  To allow anyone to access the folder, type

chown -R nobody:501 www
