Apache server root access from Netbeans

  • 772

I get this error warning when I select to copy project files from source folder to another location (my apache root: /var/www/html/) "The directory must be accessible via your web server at URL http://localhost/html/PhpProject2/". This ends up giving an error on running the project. I want to be able to create netbeans projects in apache root and run them from netbeans.

    Run following command to, when you want to edit files. (This make file accessible/editable for all users)

    sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/

    sudo chmod -R 777 /var/www/html/

    And to revert back, run following command (make file inaccessible/ to group and others)

    sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/

    sudo chmod -R 644 /var/www/html/
