Setting Folder Permissions

Discussion in 'Site Programming, Development and Design' started by Helenmary Cody, Jul 28, 2016.

  1. I am in the process of setting up my website on Winhost. I am utilizing a file upload control that requires permissions be set on several folders on my website. What is the best way to go about this? I thought FileZilla would work, but the changes don't seem to stick. Do I need to open a ticket?

    Thanks!
     
  2. Changing permissions in FileZilla won't work because that function uses a Unix/Linux command and you're on a Windows server here. You have write permission by default - what kind of permissions change are you looking for?

  3. Is it possible that the App_Data folder does not have write permission? The upload control uses a subfolder in App_Data as a staging area before copying a file to the final folder. Using a test script I can write to the final destination, but not to App_Data.
