[FlexCP-devel] File manager

[newsletters <new...@at...>]

Hey gang,

I'm testing out the redhat.hostinghacks.net redhat build and I have a test
server setup using those instructions.  I'm anxious to get this through
testing and replace my current web host with this setup in the next few
weeks.

I'm having an issue with the file manager piece and I don't know where to
begin.  ftp works from a command line both local and remote, but when I
hit file manager in the interface it gives me: FTP connection has failed!

I hope I'm posting in the right place btw, I know that you guys are just
getting started with advancing the project.

Thanks!
Andy

FTP connection failed! usually means incorrect permissions.  make sure =
you are not logged in as a reseller or administrator but as a normal =
user and check the permissions on the directory you are trying to upload =
to.

Thanks for the response.  I have been logged in as a reseller / admin. 
That makes sense.  So then my question becomes should there be a separate
account for the reseller and then the user that is the reseller?

That is probably the best way to go.  Currently I try to avoid giving=20
clients reseller accounts.  They tend to get confused by the structure =
of it. =20
Takes a little clarification often to get it all straightened out.  

Re: [FlexCP-devel] File manager

[newsletters <new...@at...>]

Well, I think I spoke too soon.  I changed 'my' account to be a regular
user and FTP still failed.

Out of curosity, I loaded winscp and tried to upload files using my
non-root account and noticed that even my home folder was off limits to
me.  Does that mean i have to use ftp or the web interface for uploading
files?

I would suggest to get a pencil and scratch paper and go through and=20
write out all the permissions for the users/groups/directories you are =
interested in
and the build on that.

In general I am not sure how much the intention of this list is to help =
troubleshoot
webcp installation/usage issues (???).  FlexCP developers, would you =
like for this=20
list to be a webcp/flexcp catchall while the webcp community regroups? =20

Or perhaps I could help you resolve the issue on this thread:
http://forum.hostinghacks.net/viewtopic.php?t=3D112
and then we could summarize and post the results here to aid the FlexCP =
team in
future design?

That's just it, the whole /home folders area is all 755 root.root.  I used
the web interface to create the users.

I'm sorry if I'm posting to the wrong area.  Wasn't sure where else to
post.  We can work on this where ever is best.

I noticed the high volume of web://cp related traffic and was thinking
it's kind of out of place. But until an official web://cp project shows
up with a mailing list or forum feel free to use the list. We'll take
you guys on as refugees :)

I'm making a special list for webcp related material right now, this way we can keep this list for
FlexCP development and still take on the refugees ;-). It's called "flexcp-webcp", you should
subscribe to it as soon as it becomes active.

you mean '/home/domain.com/www/web'  is owned by root for all domains =
you create?

I'm really really confused now.  I'm seeing that andy's folder is the same
