How to authorize all the contents of a folder to a certain user in Linux?

【Problem Analysis】

We can use the chown command. ch here stands for change, and own stands for the English word owner. Together, they mean change owner, which changes the owner of a file or folder.

Generally, only the root user has permission to use this command, and it is also a frequently used command. Here comes the question! If I want to grant permission to a folder and all its sub-contents to the mysql user, how can I do this?

What about the operation?

【Solution】

We can add the -R parameter to achieve this

-R: Make the same owner change to all files and subdirectories in the current directory (i.e. change them one by one in a recursive manner)

For example: I want to authorize landui.com to the mysql user

This is the directory structure of landui.com

We authorize the entire folder to the mysql user

Let’s take a look at the current permissions.

We can see that all authorizations are successful, indicating that this parameter is available.
