I've run into a few issues with the FudForum installation, where the permissions are not being set properly. For one, to facilitate file/attachment upload. Second, many files are installed as rw-rw-rw- which is, of course, bad.
Has anyone noted the same issues - at least, how to fix the file attachment problem(s).
Specifically, I seem to be able to upload a file, but when I go to "create topic" I get these errors:
Warning: fopen(/usr/local/apache/htdocs/forum/messages/msg_1) [function.fopen]: failed to create stream: Permission denied in /usr/local/apache/htdocs/fud/theme/default/post.php on line 3548
Warning: flock(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /usr/local/apache/htdocs/fud/theme/default/post.php on line 3549
Warning: ftell(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /usr/local/apache/htdocs/fud/theme/default/post.php on line 3550
Warning: fstat(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /usr/local/apache/htdocs/forum/include/core.inc on line 132
Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /usr/local/apache/htdocs/fud/theme/default/post.php on line 3556
Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /usr/local/apache/htdocs/fud/theme/default/post.php on line 3557
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /usr/local/apache/htdocs/fud/theme/default/post.php:3548) in /usr/local/apache/htdocs/fud/theme/default/post.php on line 3647
But the file does seem to get uploaded anyways.
The permissions on the directory are:
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/forum/messages
bash-2.05b# ls -al
total 4
drwxrwxrwx 2 nobody nobody 512 Mar 14 00:52 .
drwxr-xr-x 12 nobody nobody 512 Mar 14 00:14 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root nobody 1506 Mar 14 00:52 msg_1
This should NOT be installed as world-writable. However, the problem seems related to the fact that root owns "msg_1" but the server id is "nobody" ?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

To change the file permission to something more secure, use the File locking control panel to 'lock' the forum's files.
The forum does not have write permissions to /usr/local/apache/htdocs/forum/messages/msg_1
hence the error. I suspect it does not have write permission to /usr/local/apache/htdocs/forum/.
The file msg_1 should be owned by nobody:nobody like the rest of the forum files.

Actually the forum should be unlocked, because the user who the import script is going to run as MUST be able to write to the msg_1 file. For test's sake, try to chmod the msg_1 file to 666 (giving everyone write permissions) and then try importing a message.
