Hi,
I've put the LS files into a user's home directory - /home/ledgersmb/web.
I thought that the files for LedgerSMB should only be updated when
carrying out an upgrade - and that all configuration and data would be
stored in the database.
However, when I try to edit the letterhead template I get:
Error!
templates/xedemo/en/letterhead.html : Permission denied
Now - I can ope up the permissions to allow the web server to write to
this directory - but this means that LS is altering the files - and
storing data in the files.
This has large implications for backing up LS and making copies to other
servers. When LS is moved the database will have to be moved - but it
looks like some files will have to be moved as well.
Could someone point out which directories are expected to be writable
and therefore which files should be backed up and moved?
Thanks,
Kevin
