The first test that is run when installing eZ publish is whether the directory permissions are sufficient. If not you are asked to run a few commands:
cd /path/to/ezPublish
chmod -R a+rwx settings
chmod -R a+rwx settings/override
chmod -R a+rwx var
chmod -R a+rwx var/storage
chmod -R a+rwx var/cache
chmod -R a+rwx settings/siteaccess/admin
chmod -R a+rwx design
As a non-daily user of linux, I have a few questions. Since you're using the -R option wouldn't all subdirectories under settings and var be given the same permissions as the main directory? Why then do we need to do a chmod on settings/override var/storage and var/cache? If they are uneccessary, I suggest that you drop them. Also it says that if you know the username of your webserver, you should use a different set of permissions. And then you just give an example of the var directory. In my eyes it would be far more user friendly if you listed all the necessary commands just as you did with the previous. Because what I do, since I'm working in a Windows environment, is to copy the commands and then paste into my shell window. Thus running all of the commands in a snap :-) What do you say eZ guys, do you believe this is feasible?
