XF 2.0 XenForo 2.0.9 - Permission error?

[CammsName]

Hi,

I tried upgrading to 2.0.9 today and ran into issues with permissions(?). I've had a similar issue before, where PHP wasn't writeable, but that was due to a mishap with the user group permissions on the server. After I uploaded the upload contents and tried to run the install (www.example.com/forums/install) I was thrown this error:

An exception occurred: [ErrorException] [E_WARNING] include(/raid/www/forums/src/XF/Template/Templater.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in src/vendor/composer/ClassLoader.php on line 444

I've read a few threads stating to make data and internal_data both chmod 777 recursively, however I'm a little uneasy about doing this as wouldn't it open up vulnerabilities for exploits/attacks? Apologies for my scepticism, I'm not overly confident with linux permissions, haha.

Cheers in advance.

Had the same problem, wasn't about the chmod (rights) but about the owner of the newly uploaded files.

A quick login via console and chown www-data:www-data -R * fixed it for me.

It doesnt work for me, I habe PHP 7.4
Is there a way to fix it from the ftp?
