Hi guys,
I am running Revolution 2.2.0-pl2 and..
I can't find the new_file_permissions neither the new_folder_permissions settings in the system settings.
What I am missing ??

These are generally only set if you change them from the default values during setup. Otherwise, they are not added so the default umask is utilized.
Well but what if I need/want to access them through the system settings ?
Is there a way to add them in there ?

Yep, just add the settings with the values you want.
Okay thanks.
I guess the key value will be new_file_permissions and new_folder_permissions
Then, what should be the field type ?
And wich format my permissions values should have ?
755 or 0755 or "755" ? (I want chmod 755 for folders and 644 for files)
Is that all I have to do ??
(Will Modx recognize these key names and will know -by some kind of magic- what to do ?)
Had to deal with file permissions last time, read and try many but found no solution...
Environment: MODX Revolution 2.2.4-pl (advanced), apache 2, php 5.3, mysql
umask seems to be 0023
I set the owner of all files to the apache user
if I upload via ftp files become 0640, folders 0750
@vincentp: new_file_permissions seems to be correct, permissions should something like 0750 resp. 0640 - thats all, but there is a catch, it only affects (at my installation) the file-installs with package manager, not fileupload etc.
And there are my problems and questions around this:
1. If I do a setup because of upgrading modx ..., all updated files get permission 0626, unless I went into setup files like options.php and modinstallrunner.class.php and change the permissions hardcoded. Is there a way without changing setup files.
2. If I upload via modx-manager files become 0640, but I need 0660 for exchange with ftp - is there a setting anywhere to change this? - can I change or add the file and folder permissions made during the first install and would take this any affect?
further notice:
same permissions 0626 get files installed with package manager, if I discard the systemsetting "new_files_permissions". Hardcoded changes in xpdo/cache/xpdocachemanager.class.php, rows 131 and 132 will do same thing as new_files_permissions but has no effect to other file-operations, right??
