Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
May 8, 20204 yr It really depends on your server configuration - as long as specific folders are writable by PHP (you can use the support tool to check this - the install and upgrade processes also check on this before proceeding), your host can advise on the proper permissions for files and folders.
May 10, 20204 yr Author This is an evasive answer. Could you tell me what the minimum requirements are for the IPB update process to take place?
May 11, 20204 yr The minimum requirements can change from version to version and are checked by both the AdminCP support tool as well as the install and upgrade process themselves. As for permissions, some servers require writable folders and files to be 0777, while others require 0755. That is why the answer is evasive - if you are hosting the software on your own servers, the required permissions can vary depending upon the server configuration (whether you use suphp, as well as what user/group your FTP vs webserver user runs under, among other things).
