when i change to permissions to 777 www-data it works as expected . but i would want to guess that opening all files in the Ninjainvoice folder is not a great idea.

Hi,

Correct, you never want to use 777. Did you change the ownership recursively?

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/ninja

yes that was done but before the update when i first installed.
i reran chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/ninja
changed permissions to 775 for /ninja .

what should the permissions be set to ?

@david can you please advise?

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data storage
sudo find ./ -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
