Folder permissions

[gusgallows]

Hey guys,

My online store needs the ability to allow authenticated users to upload a file to me which I inturn read and approve to add to my shop. This is for e-book uploads which we in turn sell on consignment. Problem is, the upload_files folder I have does not have sufficient permissions for anyone to upload to. I need to chmod it but do not have the ability in cpanel. How do I get the permissions corrected on that folder so I can turn on this capability. This is not for file sharing or anything along those lines. It is for material for e-book material for which they hold the copyright and are wanting to sell on my site. Is that possible?

I have read the attached link. The upload code I am using is working as it should. The only problem I have is with permissions on the destination folder. How do I fix that, or is it even something I can fix?

Sorry for posting in the wrong forum. Was not intentional.

I have found a similar thread and am posing the question there. How do I delete this thread so it is not listed twice?

You can't, I have removed your other post.

You can't CHMOD files here, they have permissions set so you do not need to, the script will work but you need to contact the people who made the script to have them change it so it doesnt check permissions first.

Thank you Tyler.

Please forgive my newb mistakes on here. I am new to your forums and your formats. I am learning as I go though. I will see if I can get through the rest of the day without another infraction.

What makes you think that the permissions are incorrect?
Do not just assume because you cannot CHMOD that the script will not work.

It WILL work, all your directories have the correct permissions to be able to upload files.

If the upload does not work it is due to some reason unrelated to chmod, such as the file is bigger then our allowed 2MB limit.
