When I open a website user terminal session and copy files or create directories to an admin user folder (have not checked other users yet) the files are not available in the file system for the website user. When I ls the directory, the new files are listed but the file/directory info (permissions/owner/size/etc) all appear with ????. The only way to have the files available is to reboot the server or clear the file system cache issuing the command "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" as root.
How to recreate:
create a new directory /usr/repo, owner admin
as admin copy a file or create a directory inside /usr/repo
open a new ssh session for any website user
ll /usr/repo - everything ok
as admin create new directory or copy new fiiles under /usr/repo
ll /usr/repo - new files/directories are not available to the user, they show ???
if you open another ssh session as another website user, the files show ok, but size is shown as 0 and also are not available to that user
as admin sudo -s
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
as user ll /usr/repo, files are now available and show ok.
This is the first time I have ever seen this problem. Is this normal, could be I did something wrong installing?
I installed v12 on a brand-new server, didn't get any errors.
