file permissions set to 600(back to index)Hi there,
first of all my big THANK YOU to Donald and all other contributors, who donate their time to improve Folderblog instead of taking photos.
My problem: Since I updated from an earlier beta to the current one all images' file permissions I upload via /post/ are set to 600 (instead of 666). I can't access those files via FTP.
Is this a folderblog bug or a problem regarding other settings or my hosting provider?
Thanks for every hint.
Greets,
Jens
JC, the files folderblog creates should be usable by folderblog (i.e. permissions at least 655), though the script doesn't attempt to set the CHMOD itself. In the next release I'll attempt to set the permissions of uploaded files, but the PHP chmod commands aren't supported by many (most?) server configs. Let me know if you've got it working.

There's no "real" problem in running the photoblog: Folderblog can access all the files, it's me who cannot download them via FTP (e.g. for backup reasons) - I can only save them from the browser.
I just noticed that folderblog itself was only set to 600. I changed this and will report if this will result in 666 images after my next upload (BTW: the .txt caption/description files have been set to 666 by folderblog all the time).
Assigning 655 permissions to index.php was not successful, the recently uploaded image also was set to 600.
