I'm running a certain script that is using a non-root user to do the following...
mkdir: cannot create directory `/srv/www/example.com/releases'
*** [err :: 12.23.45.789] : Permission denied
How would I allow user xyz to have permanent permissions to do so and still keep this web server secure? Also is it possible to make it recursive for all subfolders?
I know its probably chmod something but I'm not that linux savy, thanks.
