Hi Marcin,
Sorry I'm not that up to speed with linux filesystems but I'll have a
go at explaining...
The files are stored on an NFS server which has two mountpoints on the
webserver, one of which is writable (where my tmp stuff is) and the
other is read-only (where the rest of my application code and webroot
is). I'm not allowed any more mountpoints and so I need the shared
writable folder to be outside this cake application as it is going to
be shared by several cake applications, not just one. Otherwise I
would have asked him to mount it as app/tmp inside my app and keep the
file structure as intended.
so my structure on the NFS server is:
docroot/app1
docroot/app2
docroot/app3
sharedtmp/app1
sharedtmp/app2
sharedtmp/app3
and on the webserver it looks like this:
docroot/app1
docroot/app2
docroot/app3
docroot/sharedtmp/app1
docroot/sharedtmp/app2
docroot/sharedtmp/app3
I think the whole point in this exercise is so he can separate
readable and writable folders without having to add more mountpoints
in future.
He also disabled symlinks for security reasons so I can't use
mod_rewrite either :-(
But what you're suggesting could be interesting actually. Can I create
three symbolic links from the sharedtmp to put my tmp folders back
where they should be inside each app?
