On our server we create an user for every of our customer and we run an instance of home-made java application (as the customers respective user). The issue is just who ever set up those servers created a home directory per user and set up everything in that directory. Including static files needed by ngnix for which I need to do something like $chgrp www-data <path> after an update.
I'm aware there is no technical reasons for having such a weird directory constellation. The issue is just reorganizing file hierarchies on docents of productive installations is not that easy, so I hoped for an easy work-around for the old installations. At least until the long overdue revision of the update and installation procedure has been done.
