File or folder permissions (and Plesk down?) - UK Web Hosting | Dedicated Server Windows and Linux VPS Forum

**Paul Image-Machine** · #1 (**permalink**) 11-10-2007, 13:14

1) Domain Name:
image-machine.com

2) Server Name and IP address:
I don't know how to find the server name, sorry.
91.186.30.8

3) Description of problem:

I have a 'counter' program, which should read a number from, and write an incremented number to, a file called (imaginatively) 'counter' in my 'var' directory. I don't think it's being updated and I suspect access permissions are the cause.

4) Anything you might have done which may have caused the problem:

See 5.

5) Anything you have done already, to try and resolve the problem:
Had a go at pemissions with Plesk, but not sure if I did the right thing, and now I can't run Plesk.

I'd like to know how I should use Plesk to propely set permissions for web (IISweb?) users in circumstances such as this - and I'd be grateful if you could review the permissions on my domain and see if that really is the problem in this case.

Many thanks,

Paul

Sorry - brain dead. This should have gone to the support section....

D'OH!

Hi Paul,
The Plesk control panel issue has been fixed & now I'm looking into the Counter one... Will update you soon

Glad to see you got at least one of your issues sorted so far. I'm sure the solution to your final problem isn't that far away! Good luck

I have to say that so far (one week with Eukhost) the service here is excellent.

Both the issues were fixed the same day, the Plesk Control Panel by me & the Counter one by Paul himself
