    Hi,
    What is the minimum necessary file and directory permissions that should be given for files and directories under DMC ?
    I get various permission errors, when I 777 everything then the errors go away.
    The documentation just mentions 2 folders but that does not seem toeliminate  the various permission error messages.

    -thanks
    Sathish.

      In most cases the min requirements is read privilege to public and the user who apache and php will be running under, I notice on some system that the execute flag needs to be set on the php scripts.

      In a pinch 755 will work and will not open you up to anything nasty,  giving 777 lets any one write to the files and is vary vary bad.

      good luck
      Matthew
