There appears to be a bug with the way Softaculous sets permissions on the .htaccess file for scripts that require the creation of .htaccess files.

With Softaculous 4.1.9, the bug fix:

Quote
Bug Fix : When CHMOD Config file was set to a certain permission few other files were also CHMODed with the config file. This is fixed now.


appears to be applying this to .htaccess file, when I don't think it should.

For example:

Set the chmod_conf_file value to 0600.  Meaning that you want configuration files to have permissions of 0600 for scripts that are installed.

Now Install WordPress and check the option for Enable Multisite (WPMU).

This will install WordPress with a special .htaccess file.

The wp-config.php file used for this installation will be correctly set to 0600.

But the .htaccess file in that directory will also be set to 0600.  This causes Apache to throw up a 403 forbidden page because Apache can't read the .htaccess file.

It is my thought that the .htaccess file should follow the value of chmod_files which I believe defaults to 0644.

Any thoughts?
