[Phpwebsite-developers] branch module

[yawstick <yaw...@ch...>]

Are there issues with the branch module? I used it to create a branch but
most everything in the branch directory was owned by nobody. I could not
even see anything in the individual theme directories much less edit them. I
had my host change ownership so I could edit them and  now it seems the
permissions are wrong on most everything, Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

Paul

Apache usually runs as the user 'nobody' so Branch will have created 
the files with that user. If your host doesn't let you chown nobody 
files then there's something wrong there. Change hosts.

The best way to create branches (if you aren't able to change ownership) is
to manually create the needed folders first. But if Nobody (Apache) created
them already then you could try the php script I found in one of the PHPWS
forums. It was written by some guy named Daniel Wacker and the name of the
script is webadmin.php.
I had the same trouble as you. It took me a whole month to get SHH access to
my site (providers here are not to keen on giving there customers SSH). When
i finally got it, it seemed to be worthless. I didn't had enough rights to
change ownership of a file that was owned by someone else (Nobody). With
webadmin.php at least i could delete the folders and recreate them again.

When I create a branch, after it's created, I...

cp -r branchname branchname.new
mv branchname branchname.old
mv branchname.new branchname

Then use an executed statement in your php to delete the branchname.old
