I have this weird issue, I'm trying to wrap my mind around acl to give some developers write access to a few files in a folder
This is an example folder structure, I have a settings.local.php file there, and I'm giving it 000 permissions with chmod, then I'm giving it rwX permissions with setfacl, it's succesful, as in getfacl does give me the correct permissions, but owner permissions are not affected, and the user can't actually save the file, actually on this example, the user can't even read the file...
hostname:/srv/clientname/sites/local# chmod 000 *
hostname:/srv/clientname/sites/local# ls -la
total 64
dr-xrwxrwx+ 3 clientname www-data 4096 Jun 19 16:50 .
drwxrwxrwx+ 5 clientname www-data 4096 Jun 19 16:51 ..
----------+ 1 clientname www-data 775 Jun 19 16:50 settings.local.php
hostname:/srv/clientname/sites/local# groups clientname
clientname : www-data sftp ftp
hostname:/srv/clientname/sites/local# setfacl -m u:clientname:rwX *
hostname:/srv/clientname/sites/local# ls -la
dr-xrwxrwx+ 3 clientname www-data 4096 Jun 19 16:50 .
drwxrwxrwx+ 5 clientname www-data 4096 Jun 19 16:51 ..
----rw----+ 1 clientname www-data 775 Jun 19 16:50 settings.local.php
hostname:/srv/clientname/sites/local# getfacl settings.local.php
file: settings.local.php
owner: clientname
group: www-data
user::---
