As far as permissions are concerned I proposed in #550321: <quote> I would suggest treating these like a temp directory, just letting www-data inside is out since the days where we started using php as fastcgi and such.
chmod 1753 /var/cache/phpbb3/cache/ /var/lib/phpbb3/avatars/ /var/lib/phpbb3/avatars/gallery/ /var/lib/phpbb3/avatars/upload/ /usr/share/phpbb3/www/images/ranks/ /usr/share/phpbb3/www/images/smilies/ (owner can stay root) (Note to maintainer: we should discuss all of this -- maybe also create further symlinks from /usr/share/phpbb3/www/images/{ranks,smilies} somewhere into /var/lib/phpbb3/ ??) </quote> Maybe we can discuss that here, as the other bug is mainly about upgrading. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
