pmwwwskypemsnyahooaimgoogleicqxfire | | issues with permissions in a folder (16th Feb 08 at 9:38pm UTC) | | Ok so I have a folder called source on one of my websites, it's below the public html folder so it looks like so..
/home/board/source/
The problem is I can't create, delete, move, copy, and files or folders in the source folder.
I copied this folder from
/home/baord/public_html/source
I can't figure out why i don't have permission to do so.
The permissions of the folder are 755
I also can't change the permissions of it. | |

yes both cpanel and ftp, I haven't tried using root access yet as this is on my server, but I might have some success with that but don't have the proper software on this as it's my laptop. | |

What confuses me, though, is why you would've been able to create /home/board/source if you didn't have write permissions for /home/board...
