XF 1.5 Problem with permissions after migration.

[Commander]

Hi everyone,

I've switched the entire forum from one server to another. Everything has been successfully passed and the database is connected and everything works, except that I can not upload files, I can not even edit the template, cant rebuild XMLsitemap... nothing.

How do I reconfigure the server permissions for the xenforo installation because it's probably a problem with that?

Sample of errors:

Server Error
fopen(/home/admin/web/site.tld/public_html/internal_data/sitemaps/sitemap-1520849139-1.xml): failed to open stream: Permission denied

When try to upload something:

#10 /home/admin/web/site.tld/public_html/index.php(13): XenForo_FrontController->run()
#11 {main}

I changed site.tld for privacy reason.

Cheers.

3. Setting Permissions
Once the files are finished uploading, you must set permissions (or CHMOD) several places. This is necessary to ensure that XenForo can write to those parts of your server. You can usually do this with your FTP client.

1. In the set of files and directories you just uploaded, you will see 2 folders: data and internal_data.
2. These two directories must be set to world writeable (CHMOD 0777) or give the IUSR_ Full Control in Windows.

Keep your FTP client open; you may still need it for the next step

I've already done this before I looked for help here....

If you have set all the files and folders correctly, and are still experiencing issues, then you would need to contact your host and have them investigate what the issue is.
