I’m running a build where I boot up a selenium server to do some acceptance testing. I boot up a few things, install WordPress into /var/www/html/ and run through my PHP script.
Inside of that script, I’m attempting to create a directory inside of /var/www/html/wp-content/uploads/
but it’s hitting permission denied error. I’ve tried literally everything I can think of to resolve this so my builds succeed, but I can’t get beyond this permission denied.
The entire /var/www/html directory is owned by circleci:circleci so there should be no permissions issue. I’ve tried chowning everything from /var down, setting permissions to 0755, but nothing. All of my other acceptance tests pass, but this one where mkdir()
is executed will not pass.
If I SSH into the build to debug and then execute the following command from the command line there is no permission issue: php -r “mkdir( ‘/var/www/html/wp-content/uploads/test’ );”. I just don’t see what’s going on.
Acceptance tests run fine locally, and manual testing is perfectly fine, this only occurs in this build
The build is for a private repo, so it’s not publicly accessible.
