dir_transversible_permissions

Name

dir_transversible_permissions -- chmod options to make a dir transversible

Synopsis

     dir_transversible_permissions="a+x"
  

Description

makethumbs goes to great lengths to operate correctly despite highly restrictive umask settings. It chmod's all of its created files and the current working directory so that the files/dir can be read by the web server.

You may not want makethumbs changing your permissions on you (cf change_file_permissions), or you may want to tweak the exact permissions it sets. Both are possible.

This variable has a permission specification to chmod.

Examples

If you'd like to have your directory set to mode 0750, you'd set it like this:

     dir_transversible_permissions="0750"
