Hey guys! I'm trying to get my CFFILE upload code to work properly on a linux environment. Unfortunately, it seems to only work as far as uploading when I set the permissions of the directory to "777". I really don't want to open it up that much. Is this something I'm stuck with or is there another way of addressing this issue? See code below...thanks so much!
<html><head><title>Upload File with Coldfusion</title></head><body>
<cfif isdefined("form.submit_upload")>
<cffile action="UPLOAD" filefield="file_path" destination="#file_dir#" nameconflict="MAKEUNIQUE" mode="777">
<strong><font color="red">File Uploaded!</font></strong>
</cfif>
<form action="index.cfm" method="POST" name="frmupload" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<H4>Upload a File</h4><br>
<h5>Coldfusion upload
<br><br>
Enter file path for upload:<br><br>
<input type="text" name="file_dir"><br><br>
Select file to upload:<br><br>
<input type="file" name="file_path"><br><br>
<input type="submit" name="submit_upload" value="upload">
</form>
</body></html>

Remember that your CF instance is running as a user. What rights does that user have to your upload folder? Perhaps that will shed some light on it.
