Question

Hi I just installed ubuntu alongside my Win 7 and I have been using xampp and am very familiar with it, but I just installed lamp and am using the apache2, php, and mysql from terminal and I copied a web folder over from my xampp side and it is saying that I do not have permission to access that file.

I know that on my pc I had some htaccess files but on Ubuntu I am yet to figure out how to view those. Is this a product of those .htaccess files or something else?

Answer 1

如果在系统分区上安装WAMP / XAMMP，则会发生这种情况。

Answer 2

so you copied the files form windows to linux? sounds like a classic file permissions problem.

per default the www folder is in /var/www , so you can simply set the owner of this folder to the apache user which is called www-data , run this in terminal:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www

but now you will no longer be able to write to those files yourself, because they are owned by www-data. checkout this answer for more details and how to get write access: https://askubuntu.com/a/51337
or you make it writeable for everyone (which is a bad idea): sudo chmod -R 777 /var/www

about editing .htaccess files:

I don't use linux with a graphical user interface, but you can edit them with the terminal editor of your choice, on ubuntu you have nano installed by default:
nano /var/www/.htaccess

or if you want a more advanced editor, I suggest vim https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VimHowto
vim /var/www/.htaccess
