FAQ Question

This typically happens when the files that are in the artist and member directories (i.e. jamroom/members/1/*.php) are NOT owned by the current web user. Typically a web server runs as an account on a server (often called “httpd” or “nobody”), and in order to create or write to a file, it must have the proper permissions. Often what can happen is you change servers, or copy your Jamroom from one folder to another, and the files will now be owned by YOUR user account on the server, and no longer be owned by the web user. Without fixing the permissions on those files you will get this error.

The solution to the error is to log in to your server (via FTP) and change the permissions on the files to be 666 in the artist folders (or possibly 644 if your PHP is running in CGI mode or with PHP suEXEC support enabled) - this will allow “write permissions” for the web user, which will now allow the web server to create and overwrite the files it needs to create the Artist site.

After you have set the proper permissions on your folders and files in your Artist and Member directories, you can regenerate your Sites and you should have no errors.
