Cache folder permissions in PROD

[daninr]

Hello,

When I deploy my Symfony application to production server and try to cache clear, I receive the following error:

Failed to remove file "/project/var/cache/pro~/fosJsRouting/data.json": unlink(/project/var/cache/pro~/fosJsRouting/data.json): Permission denied.

If I see the permissions, I noticed cache folder has been created with user/group: www-data

How can I solve it?

Hello,
I get the some permissions issue.
All files and folders under var/cache/prod are created with the site user owner (run) except fosJsRouting
which is created with www-data

How did you solve your issue ?
Using :

• Symfony 4.4.5
• FOSJsRoutingBundle : ^2.5
• Ubuntu : 18.x

Thanks

Hello @jfdl,

Unfortunately I could not solve it. I removed this bundle and stopped using it.

Establecer todos los permisos a /symfony/var/cache/*
chmod -R 777 sysmfony/var/cache/

Hi @yuriang85, setting files to mode 777 is almost never a good idea since it defeats any security.
Having the files under the owner www-data is a good option though.
The issue may be caused because the user wich is trying to access to that file is not www-data.

Did you try to remove cache using the user www-data?
