[Loris-dev] Fwd: using media module through front end

Thu Jun 1 21:57:54 EDT 2017

Hi Justin,
we probably should have posted the final "solution" to this on loris-dev
but yes, exactly, we needed to have lorisadmin:www-data ownership, and
change permissions on /data/uploads with chmod -R 755. This ended up
working for me :)

thanks for looking into it,

Carolina
