hello
Thank you for checking ...

I have a problem

I am using pre-configged VPS [CentOS7 64]

it had qb-nox 3.3.7 but it wasn't starting at startup

I installed qb-nox 3.3.7 by root user [this centos is working by root user, all apps and scripts run under root]

and now
It can't delete the "download" folder's contents , after it sends them to the Upload application

some how it doesn't have permission or it's cookie has issue

Please can you help me what I need to do to be able to delete the download folder?

the user which it's running [grep...] is:  ario  [home/ario]

but this installation [qb-nox v3.3.7] is being done by root ,which I need this user works

Thank you again for checking the thread

Simply use "chown" to set your proper permissions for your directory.
https://askubuntu.com/questions/693418/ ... les/693423

For example, I have a user called "peter". On Ubuntu, that means I have:
User: peter
Group: peter

And of course, a home folder in: /home/peter

So if I mess around as "sudo" or "root", I have to fix the permissions by doing this:
sudo chown -R peter:peter /home/peter

What this means:
"sudo" - because we do this as root
"chown" - change owner
" -R" - recursive (all folders and files inside)
"peter:peter" - New owner is peter user, in the peter group
"/home/peter" - The home location

In fact I have such scripts on the server too because permissions just always mess up. (For example I fiddle around with backups, I have to do a maintenance, etc. So I set it to always just fix permissions like every half an hour. It really takes like no time to do so.)

! Keep in mind, on CentOS, you might have a different group than your username. Check.

! Make sure you set the permission on the proper folder, and not somewhere else
