Item12088: Debian apt-get install foswiki-calendarplugin Issue

-- BillJones - 24 Sep 2012

You likely need to do an extra step for Debian? Maybe -

• STEP 2 - Configure $WIKI_OWNER: __After Install__
  • chown $WIKI_OWNER.www-data /var/lib/foswiki/data
  • chown $WIKI_OWNER.www-data /var/lib/foswiki/pub

mmm, surprising :/ the packages do this, I'll have to look into and figure out why this one's not behaving

This will fix things after you've used Debian to manually install the package:

fixfw () 
{ 
    clear;
    cd /var/lib/foswiki/;
    chown www-data:www-data `2>/dev/null find . -ls | grep "root     root" | awk '{ print $11 }'`
}

apt-get install foswiki-calendarplugin (maybe others) creates foswiki extension with root:root ownership; it should be www-data:www-data; to fix use:

• chown -R www-data:www-data /var/lib/foswiki/data
• chown -R www-data:www-data /var/lib/foswiki/pub
