Apache doesn't have permission to access the vbox share folder in Ubuntu 18












0














I have mounted a share folder (sf_test) to use as my apache root directory:



drwxrwx---  1 root vboxsf    0 Dec 28 23:42 sf_test


I have added my user to the vboxsf group and I can cd in there and make change.
also I have added my apache user (www-data) to the vboxsf group so that I can access it via http requets. Unfortunately when I try to browse the web page it gives a 403 error (for permission denied)



here is the vboxsf group users



vboxsf:x:999:myuser,www-data,root


here is my apache users :



root      1054  0.0  1.7 422844 35628 ?        Ss   Dec28   0:00 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start

www-data 1064 0.0 0.5 422932 11580 ? S Dec28 0:00 /usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
eramba 1226 0.0 0.0 14224 1028 pts/0 S+ 01:06 0:00 grep -E --color=auto (apache|httpd)


I have checked similar questions like
Apache can't access file while is has permission
or
you don't currently have permission to access this folder
but they didn't help.



I wonder what I can do change the permissions of the shared folder.
