Hello, I need to put System File as private an place the files folder outside /. The webfolder full route is like /srv/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs I first created the folder files at the same level as httdocs and assigned the same owner as the original files folder, and changed the permissions to 777
I tried ../files I tries the full route /srv/www/vhosts/domain.com/files
All without luck, Drupal tells me the folder doesn't exists. Any idea? I'm on a dedicated server with root access.
If I'm understanding this correctly, what you'll need to do is specify the absolute path (/srv/www/vhosts/domain.com/files) and then set the "Download Method" to private (Drupal serves the files instead of the webserver). These changes, by the way, are made on the admin/settings/file-system page...
Cheers, Jonathan
