A common problem in using Linux is restriction. Some operations are restricted for users by root.But if it is needed to do that operation like editing what to do? Today I have faced same kind of problem. I use \/var\/www\/ as localhost for server based development. I can’t get working jobs (already done) copied from another folder\/device because of rescriction by addministrator. If I open that file as administrator ,it works. But It is impossible to open a large number of files by opening as administrator when in server based job like web development. So, I must make \/var\/www\/ accessible for reading and writing for me. <\/p>\n

To do this here is the command which must be executed on terminal.<\/p>\n

\r\nsudo chown -R www-data:ujjal \/var\/www\r\n\r\n\/\/ chown    -> change ownership\r\n\/\/ www-data (owner name from)-> right click on the file and check permission tab for the owner name.\r\n\/\/ ujjal   (owner name to be made)-> your username (check users and groups if you dont know your username)\r\n<\/pre>\n
or<\/p>\n
\r\nsudo chmod 777 -R \/var\/www\r\n<\/pre>\n
Precautions: Linux is case sensitive.mind it.<\/p>\n
