Messed up root permissions Ubuntu 14.04 - Ask Ubuntu
this question has answer here:
while changing directory ownership, accidentally did
sudo chown subhadip /
instead of sudo chown myapp
after realizing mistake, tried fixed few permissions i.e., sudo
etc. sudo chown -r root /
stopped operation wrong.
now getting “the system running in low-graphics mode” error, believe because of wrong permissions only.
i able login in console mode.
please guide me.
to repair personal space, run:
$ sudo chown -r $user:$user ~/
for of other applications broken have repair them see problem app. of sysem files owned root , still work.
certain services such mysql
, apache
owned specific user... in case of mysql
user mysql
. in case of apache
default user www-data
.
there other server programs might run such ftp
. ftp
server default user ftp
.
if application broken, it'll give error suggests problem permission.
