Ensure your web server software can write to this folder - something like this should do the trick:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>chown www-data:www-data attachments/
|
|
chmod 700 attachments</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>(substitute www-data for the user / group that your web server runs as, eg ‘apache’ or ‘httpd’)</p>
|
|
<p>If all else fails ensure all users can write to it:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>chmod 777 attachments/</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<p>This is NOT recommended, especially if you’re on a shared server.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><p class="first">Ensure that your <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">attachments</span></tt> folder has directory listings turned off, to ensure users don’t download files that they are not specifically linked to from their tickets.</p>
|
|
<p>If you are using Apache, put a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">.htaccess</span></tt> file in the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">attachments</span></tt> folder with the following content:</p>
|
|
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">Options</span> <span class="o">-</span><span class="n">Indexes</span>
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p>You will also have to make sure that <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">.htaccess</span></tt> files aren’t being ignored.</p>
|
|
<p>Ideally, accessing <a class="reference external" href="http://MEDIA_URL/helpdesk/attachments/">http://MEDIA_URL/helpdesk/attachments/</a> will give you a 403 access denied error.</p>
