Permissions for log folder in Linux

  • In order to get a stats program working correctly (and automatically archiving old stuff), I need to set a Linux folder so the sticky bits for new files stick to 664 (or I guess 660) with group nobody... or figure out a way to make apache save its logs with different permissions and/or different ownership. I need the commands to do this. Thanks...


  • Does this work for you? As root: 1. chmod 0664 2. chgrp nobody 3. chmod g+s


  • I have CPanel and AWStats; the problem is using AWStats to archive the log files when it's finished its run.


  • Doesn't seem to stick. However, I sort of evaded it by setting up webalizer instead of awstats. I don't know why, but that works without permissions issues. Either that or a prior intervention (including chmod 1664) worked.


  • Howdy davert3-ga, Which stats program are you trying to install? Thanks! Looking Forward, denco-ga - Google Answers Researcher
