Chaning folder permissions for www folder under var

I tried changing the folder permissions using:
sudo chown -R www-data:ww-data /var/www
and
sudo chmod 777 /var/www -R

but nothing happened. It gave a error variable missing

Could it be because you are missing a w in there?

Open a terminal and post the outputs of these commands here.


ls -la /var/www
grep www-data /etc/group
