I am running a LAMP server (Ubuntu) on a VM, using ESXi. I host multiple websites using the Virtualmin/Webmin CP. I have been having problems with one site that I am hosting, a wiki that uses Mediawiki, http://minetestwiki.co.cc/index.php?title=Main_Page Basically it'll randomly change the folder permissions (recursively, I believe), to 644 I think. This blocks everyone from viewing the website, and gives a "403 Forbidden" message. Every time this happens, I have to SSH to the server and re-apply permissions by running "sudo chmod -R 777 /home/user/public_html", but this is majorly inconvenient, since it randomly changes the permissions, and I have to be notified when it happens or else it'll block everyone out. The owner of the wiki isn't changing any permissions, so I don't really know what's going on here. Any idea of what may be causing this, or how to fix it? Thanks! "Do you have some policy daemon running like SELinux?" I do not know what this means. Something to do with mail? I removed all packages relating to mail servers..... Read More »
