Everything seems to be working fine except one error:
When I log into groupware using any account, upon entering the PHPWebhosting section, this error is at the top of the page:
Warning: MkDir failed (No such file or directory) in /home/interart/public_html/members/phpgwapi/inc/class.vfs_sql.inc.php on line 1643
My setup:
(o) My phpgroupware directory was renamed to "members" before I uploaded to my server and began installing groupware.
(o) All the files and directories have "755" permissions (reverted from 777 after installation)
(o) My "phpgroupware/files" directory, simply, "/home/files" has "777" permissions
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Rob
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
This is definitely a permissions or locatoin problem. Since your files directory is world writable, the path supplied is probably wrong. Make sure you specified "/home/files" in setup ("Enter the full path for users and group files.").
The other cause could be that you made the /home/files directory, instead of copying the phpgroupware/files directory. This would result in there not being a /home/files/home directory. In this case, copy the phpgroupware/files directory to /home/files, as described in the INSTALL file.

Yes, you do need something there. Did you read the rest of the postings in this thread? Potential causes:
1) Wrong files path specified in setup
2) No "home" directory inside the files directory
3) Wrong permissions (both the files directory and the "home" directory inside of it must be writable).
I did read all of this thread, several other similar threads, the install doc, and even tried to trace the code to see what was happening. I knew it was something obvious. I just never actually interpreted that references to "home" was a literal value path-to-files/home.
Thanks again. That solved the problem!
BTW - This is a GREAT APP! I am looking forward to our association using it!

Thanks Jason,
My phpwebhosting is working now.
When I changed the permissions for the "files" directory, I overlooked changing the permissions for the "home" directory as well.
Thanks a lot!
I'm having the same problem and I'm sure I'm just losing my mind missing something obvious.
I'm on a Virtual Server where the http directories are: /home/hostacct/domain-www
I have my Files Setting as:
/home/hostacct/domain-www/schools
The /home/hostacct/domain-www/schools permissions are: drwxrwxrwx
I can't (for security reasons) make the /home/hostacct/domain-www directory writable.
Can anyone spot what I'm missing?
Thanks
Chuck
One other thing...
When I downloaded the tar.gzip file today and unpacked it, my copy did not have a phpgroupware/files path.
I've see several references to this directory
Should I have something there?
Thanks
Chuck
Yes, you do need something there. Did you read the rest of the postings in this thread? Potential causes:
1) Wrong files path specified in setup
2) No "home" directory inside the files directory
3) Wrong permissions (both the files directory and the "home" directory inside of it must be writable).
So in your case,
mkdir -p /home/hostacct/domain-www/schools/home
chmod -R 777 /home/hostacct/domain-www/schools
Make sure the path in setup is "/home/hostacct/domain-www/schools/"
Hope this helps,
