Re: [PLUG] Back to wordpress

[Doug Stewart <zamoose@gmail.com>]

In general, files under a WordPress install should belong to (web user):(web group). On RHEL derivatives, that means apache:apache, on Deb derivatives it's www-data:www-data, iirc. 

Additionally, from the root of your WP install, you should run a `find . -type f -exec chmod 660 {} \;` and a "-type d/chmod 771" equivalent as well. 

The Debug Bar plugin can be helpful in these situations, but only if you're actually logging errors. What is your display_errors set to in php.ini?
