    FYI Im totally new to anything linux which is why Im asking here.

    I moved a modx revo (2.2.0-pl2) site to a new server running latest Ubuntu and need a bit of clarification on permissions.

    I understand the following need to be writable:

    /core/packages
    /core/cache
    /core/import
    /core/export

    My question is, when I check permissions on folders in the /core directory, would the following be correct? Have I over-extended?


    drwxrwxrwx 19 web3 client2 4096 May 24 09:10 cache
    drwxrwxrwx 7 web3 client2 4096 May 24 09:10 components
    drwxr-xr-x 2 web3 client2 4096 May 18 01:25 config
    drwxr-xr-x 3 web3 client2 4096 May 18 01:25 docs
    drwxr-xr-x 2 web3 client2 4096 May 18 01:25 error
    drwxr-xr-x 5 web3 client2 4096 May 24 09:10 export
    -rw-r--r-- 1 web3 client2 78 May 24 08:49 ht.access
    drwxr-xr-x 2 web3 client2 4096 May 18 01:25 import
    drwxr-xr-x 16 web3 client2 4096 May 18 01:25 lexicon
    drwxr-xr-x 7 web3 client2 4096 May 18 01:25 model
    drwxr-xr-x 13 web3 client2 4096 May 24 09:10 packages
    drwxr-xr-x 10 web3 client2 4096 May 18 01:27 xpdo


    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
