Magento – Magento 2 installation & Linux file folder permission

file-permissionsinstallationlinuxmagento2

I am using Linux Mint. I installed a quick package of Magento 2 Theme. I tried to browse Admin Panel. But I couldn't browse. Then I found I have to change file & folder permission. I tried below command to change file permission.

foysal@foysal-laptop /var/www/html/aloquick $ find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;

I got below result.

chmod: changing permissions of './var/generation/Magento/Weee/Model/Tax/Proxy.php': Operation not permitted

I tried below command to change folder permission.

foysal@foysal-laptop /var/www/html/aloquick $ find . -type d -exec chmod 775 {} \;

I got below result.

chmod: changing permissions of './var/generation': Operation not permitted

Where is the issue ? Am I using wrong commands ?

UPDATE

I executed (sudo find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \; sudo find . -type d -exec chmod 775 {} \;) this commands. But I can't browse both front end and back end of the site.

Give 775 permission to your var and pub/media directory.

Run below command for the same.

  • sudo chmod -R 775 /var/generation
  • sudo chmod -R 775 /pub/media

If in case in your server 775 not work then try same command with 777 for those 2 folders and check.
