About permissions in ocsreport folder

Question

Hello

Im very newbie with this.

Just installed ocs inventory and im in the step of type the address in the browser but i received a message like this:

"Document root should be writable : /usr/share/ocsinventory-reports/ocsreports" 

I don't find anything about this and i don't know what to do.

The permissions i have are:

drwxr-xr-x.   3 root root    55 Nov 24 17:17 ocsinventory-reports

drwxr-xr-x. 14 root apache    4096 Nov 24 16:57 ocsreports

Hi,

install.php code :

        if (!file_exists(DOCUMENT_REAL_ROOT."/download")) {
                mkdir(DOCUMENT_REAL_ROOT."/download");
        }
        if (!file_exists(DOCUMENT_REAL_ROOT."/logs")) {
                mkdir(DOCUMENT_REAL_ROOT."/logs");
        }
        if (!file_exists(DOCUMENT_REAL_ROOT."/scripts")) {
                mkdir(DOCUMENT_REAL_ROOT."/scripts");
        }
}else{
        $msg_lbl['warning'][]="Document root should be writable : ".DOCUMENT_REAL_ROOT;
}

Checks the rights of /usr/share/ocsinventory-reports/ocsreports/download directory.

Regards,
