Recently I moved my website from CPanel hosting to Lightsail hosting. As everyone know lightsail is cheaper than EC2 also its provide control of your own server. It is a VPS server but in package provided by AWS.
I successfully transfer the WordPress site from CPanle to Lightsail. But when I tried to update or upgrade my WordPress version or Plugins I got the permission issue. Somthing like “could not create directory”.
AWS Lightsail Permission Fix Steps
1 ) First you have to check your bitnami folder structure. This different than others. You can check this using FTP or you can connect the SSH and check.
2) For connect FTP or SSH you need to login lightsail account and select your instance. Once you select your instance you can go and click orange “Connect using ssh“.
3) In my scenario my folder structure is : /opt/bitnami/wordpress/
When you have the Terminal window open, you can run following command as per your path
Permission Command One
sudo chown -R bitnami:daemon /bitnami/wordpress/
sudo find /bitnami/wordpress/ -type d -exec chmod 775 {} \;
sudo find /bitnami/wordpress/ -type f -exec chmod 664 {} \;
sudo chmod 640 /opt/bitnami/wordpress/wp-config.phpPermission Command Two
sudo chown -R bitnami:daemon /opt/bitnami/wordpress/
sudo find /opt/bitnami/wordpress/ -type d -exec chmod 775 {} \;
sudo find /opt/bitnami/wordpress/ -type f -exec chmod 664 {} \;
sudo chmod 640 /opt/bitnami/wordpress/wp-config.phpRelated articles
