I have installed Videos5 and am utilizing an alternative location rather than the default. Am using: /var/hda/files/drives/Big/Movies/
I ran the following as instructed:
mysql -uvideos5 -pvideos5 -e "update settings set value='/var/hda/files/drives/Big/Movies/' where name = 'paths'" videos5
/usr/bin/php /var/hda/web-apps/videos5/html/index.php find
When I login to Videos5 and try to encode one of the listed movies I get the following:
Can't encode /var/hda/files/drives/Big/Movies/A Few Good Men.mov:
apache user can't write in this directory.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
-Robert
Videos5 permission error
Re: Videos5 permission error
videos5, the app, runs with the apache user.
in order for it to encode, it has to write the output file.
it needs permissions to do so.
is the simplest thing you can do.

Code: Select all
chmod 777 /var/hda/files/drives/Big/Movies/
