Serving from FAT32 USB memory stick under Linux
Posted: 01. March 2010 20:33I'm running XAMPP under Linux and my development site lives on a USB memory stick (FAT32 format, so it can be used on Windows machines too). Apache doesn't seem to be able to access the site to serve it. I think it issue is with permissions on a FAT32 formatted device. It seems that things can only be read and written by the user, I can't chmod items on the stick to be accessible by anyone else.
Can anyone confirm that this is related to the FAT32 formatting of the device? If so, what can I do about this?
Many thanks,
Geoff
