Hi All.
I am trying to setup an enviroment for Wordpress development on ubuntu 12, but I am having troubles with permissions (I am quite new to this).
The last unsolved problem is that I cannot manage to get Eclipse to modify files (permission problem).
So, here is what I did:
first, I installed Xampp, using root.
Htdocs results having own:root, group:root. fine(?).
Then, unpacked WP downloaded from their site.
WP has owner:nobody, group:nogroup. Apache is reading it, so fine...(?)
Then I install Eclipse using software center, and I add various plugins, all fine.
Now, I launch Eclipse and try to modify my WP project. It can't, no permission!
Somebody suggested me to launch eclipse as root (gksu eclipse).
I tried that, but it seems all the plugins are gone this way (they where installed under a different user?).
I need to fix the Eclipse file editing issue, but most of all, I need to understand the whole things: how should this be setup?
thank you so much for reading through this and for the patience of explaining me.
