Receiving mkdir() permission denied error when pipeline set to true

[Tyler Vick]

Hello,

While attempting to configure a new laravel project (migrating my L4 project to L5) I now receive the error:

    ErrorException in Manager.php line 457:
    mkdir(): Permission denied

I believe that my permissions are set correctly on my public folder, and this issue only occurs when pipeline is set to true. Additionally, I have not deployed my new project yet, and have only been using the 'php artisan serve' command to test.

I have not changed any of the directories in the config, as my assets are located within public/js and public/css, and the 'min' folder should still be created within their respective folders.

Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated, as I really would like to use the pipeline feature!

Hi @tylerjvick.

First, I'm closing this issue because if there are no permission for using mkdir then also there are no permissions to programatically change the permissions that will allow the mkdir. Therefore there is nothing from the package point of view that can be used to fix your issue. It's a filesystem missconfiguration.

Second, if you are using an unix-like operative system please provide:

• Your public_dir config option value as well as the css_dir and js_dir.
• The full (from root) directory hierarchy* subtree with the owner, group and permissions of each directory in the subtree.
• The filesystem username and group of the user you are using to run your PHP application.

Remember in unix-like filesystems folders' permissions cascade, so is not enough to check the final path permissions but also all the upstream folders permissions.

If you are not using a unix-lixe OS, sorry but I can't help you

[*] i.e: If your pubic assets path is /var/www/laravel/public/css I need to see the owner, group and permissions of var, www, laravel, public and css folders.
