I'm not sure if the solution for this is in PHP or a server setting, but I thought I would start here.

I have an image upload function built into my custom PHP content management system. It works fine in as much as it uploads the image to the right location and all that. What I have discover though is that any image uploaded through the CMS I can't sync back and download via FTP. I get a 'permission denied' error when I try.

I took a look at the file permissions and all the CMS uploaded files are set as 600 belonging to user: 'apache' in group 'apache'. If I use shell access to manually set the files to permission 644 (which shows user: '[my_username]' and group 'psacln'), then I am able to backup the files through FTP.


Is there a way to get the image upload function to set the proper file permissions at the time of the upload?

Hello,

You need to use suPHP to make the uploaded files to be owned by the same user that owns the account. Please see the following post about similar issue for more details:

Yesterday I paid to have Lunarpages install suPHP, however I am still seeing the same issue when I upload an image through the CMS.

Is there something that needs to be further configured? Is there something I need to be doing in PHP?

It is required to check suPHP configration in httpd.conf and files that it includes to ensure suPHP engine is enabled for your site. Please update your ticket with the support about suPHP install asking them to look into this.
