As title said, how do I upload my php files into my newly installed httpd (/var/www/html) on a EC2 instance?

I am trying to use cyberduck(using sftp), but apperantly, when I connected to my EC2 instance, it shows nothing (no files, no folders). Am I missing something/some settings??

Check the rights the user you use to connect has. Try creating a separate which has sufficient rights to do this.

  • OKay, i already give the user rights: "chown -R NewUser /var/www/html", but when I connect via cyberduck, it still display the files thats 2 level above the /var/ directory, and i cant see /var/www/html folder Commented Mar 1, 2011 at 10:47
  • IF you are connected with NewUser to ssh and you run the command 'touch /var/www/html' does this work? Commented Mar 1, 2011 at 11:14
