I can't seem to grant myself write permissions to the var/www/html directory
I’ve installed Centos 7 and created a Super user (user01) by adding it to the wheel group. I then installed WordPress and then logged onto server via FileZilla as user01 and tried to upload a new theme to the /var/www/html/wp-content/themes folder. But the file transfers failed due to lack of write/edit permission to that folder.
Why?
And how to get this resolved. Thanks.

I guess the var/www/html folder was created and owned by root, but as a Super User how to get such permission to write to this and all sub-folders?
Which user/group are the rest of the files associated with? You could change the ownership of files/directories you need to with chown:
Thanks. I changed the ownership from apache to user01 (chown user01:apache <file/folder> -fv, it seems to work now.
