Question - permissions issue - possible glitch in #plesk repair fs ?

As Plesk documentation says the permission of httpdocs ahould be 750, I would call the non-correction by running #plesk repair fs a glitch or a bug.​

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

set permissions on httpdocs folders to other then 750. Run

#plesk repair fs

to try and repair and set proper permissions.​

ACTUAL RESULT:

permissions stay the same, and are not corrected to 750.​

EXPECTED RESULT:

permissions are set to 750​

ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

​

YOUR EXPECTATIONS FROM PLESK SERVICE TEAM:

From developer:

Nope, not a glitch.

There was a bug PPP-14056 and its bugfix was "our repair tool should consider both 750 and 755 permissions for httpdocs as fine".

If you run the plesk repair fs in verbose mode it will show the following:

—

# plesk repair fs worldcup2018russia.football -v
Checking virtual hosts' file system

There are incorrect permissions on some items in the WWW root
directory of the domain 'worldcup2018russia.football' ...................... [ERROR]

Incorrect permissions on
/var/www/vhosts/worldcup2018russia.football/httpdocs/.: expected is one
of 0750, 0755, actual is 0757
Do you want to repair incorrect permissions? [Y/n]
—

"Expected is one of 0750 or 0755".

So yes, by default Plesk creates httpdocs with 750 (and set such permissions in case httpdocs has some other value than 750 or 755), however, it is common for customers to have httpdocs permissions set to 755.
