After some problems during the switch to WebCat/Linux we found general rules for editing, upload and permissions. Maybe this is of general interest:--- 1 - Set BBEdit to Unix linebreaks. --- 2 - Upload templates binary. Sounds strange, but in conjunction with Unix linebreaks it works more reliable whenever cr/lf are involved. --- 3 - Upload databases binary. Otherwise you won't be able to search for special characters. --- 4 - After the upload, set permissions of all databases to 777 (everything allowed for everyone). Yeah, we can discuss this - but during upload you are a certain user and databases maintained by Webat have to be writeable for nobody anyway. So I don't see a remarkable bigger security risk. And we don't want to force our admin to set nobody-permissions after each single upload... --- Hope this helps. Note: Anarchie does not store the binary transfer setting, you have to select it for each session!
