UX for wrong permission on new installation is lacking #2524

Closed Geod24 closed 2 years ago

Geod24 commented 2 years ago

Akaunting version

v3.0.3

PHP version

Irrelevant but v8.1.0

Operating system

Irrelevant but v3.0.3

Steps to reproduce

Configure a server to run as www-data or any non-root user, download the zip and extract it as root. Files will be owned by root and things will error out in non-obvious ways. In addition to that permission problem, running php artisan install as root can lead to similar problems.

Expected result

As this is likely to be a common error, a nicer error message would be good.

Actual result

Currently one has to dig in the log and understand why there is a permission error.

It's related to your server setup, out of the scope of the app.
