Grant permission for new folder problems...

Posted on February 4, 2014

Hello i am trying to grant new permissions for a new folder i made.

I input this: chown -R root:root /var/broombanklandrovers.com/public_html

and i get: chown: cannot access `/var/broombanklandrovers.com/public_html’: No such file or directory

BUT the directory there as i can log in via SFTP and click through the path all the way to /public_html.

Why is it saying this?
