Install Tool - Warnings for "Folder structure"

Warning messages in the install tool

In the install tool from TYPO3 6.2 onwards, several warnings appear in the "Folder structure" section of the install tool in our hosting packages.

These warnings do not affect the function of TYPO3 and can therefore simply be ignored.

Path /index.php is not a link

If you set up a TYPO3 installation with symlinks, the index.php in the project directory can in principle also be a symlink to the index.php in the typo3_src directory.

However, symlinks to files are not permitted on our servers for security reasons, so the index.php must be a "real" file here.

Default file permissions (BE/fileCreateMask or SYS/fileCreateMask)

The TYPO3 developers recommend setting the permissions for files created via the backend to 0660. The default setting is 0665, which you can set via the install tool in the "All Configuration" area.

Default directory permissions (BE/folderCreateMask or SYS/folderCreateMask)

The TYPO3 developers recommend setting the permissions for directories created via the backend to 2770. The default setting is 2775, which you can set via the install tool in the "All Configuration" area.
