Description:
I created new VM instance under gcloud and installed new version of lamp then proceeded with new joomla module. Then moved my Akeeba backuped jpa data onto new instance and restored on new stack but the resulting combo just did not seem to function well. I am seeing some error in restarting the stack particularly with apache but still it subsequently ran. Whenever I see new updates of modules or plugins the update would fail by saying copying failed. I checked permission of source and destination directories but nothing seemed out of ordinary. My website still functioned but not 100%. Something still did not function and I suspected there was permission issue with certain directories. Need help.

Hi @vientito,

It seems the permissions of the apps/joomla/htdocs folder are not correct. Could you execute the following commands:

sudo chown -R bitnami:daemon /opt/bitnami/apps/joomla/htdocs
sudo chmod -R g+x /opt/bitnami/apps/joomla/htdocs

And restart Apache?

/opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh restart apache

Best regards,

Michiel D'Hont
