Owncloud error

Cupar19 · March 22, 2018

so i tried setting up owncloud on mr rpi3 but when i try and access it i get

Can't write into config directory!
This can usually be fixed by <a href="https://doc.owncloud.org/server/10.0/go.php?to=admin-dir_permissions" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">giving the webserver write access to the config directory</a>.
any ideas on whats wrong

Not sure where owncloud is running at but if i might guess it could be using apache. Does it have a webGUI?

Some trouble shooting steps:

1. check if apache2 is running. Run top | grep apache.

2. If so check permissions at /etc/www/html folder. run ls -l to check. It should have read permissions for others.

Let me know the results.

Edit: error message says something about permissions at config directory. where does owncloud store config files? check permissions at this folder. It should have read and write permissions permissons for the whatever want to write to it see example below. But for trouble shooting you can try to give rwx for others temporarely.
