Permission with Apache on CENTOS

Question

I installed LAMP in my CENTOS and it all looks fine. In my www/html/ folder I placed my script and they all work fine, they can write/read everything. However everytime I create a folder and I put files inside it they cannot write, for example, if I use file_put_contents with PHP it does not work due the permission denied error.

Everytime it happens I need to chmod 777 to that folder and all the files inside. It's a great time loss.

Is there someway I configure the CENTOS so everytime I create a folder or upload a file it automatically will have read/write permission?

Answer 1

If you want new created folder/file to automatically have 777 permission, you must set umask to 000.
