- Change to your Magento installation directory.
-
Manually clear the
var/cache
,var/page_cache
, andvar/generation
directories.A sample command follows:

Apply file system permissions and ownership
As part of the sample data upgrade process, you must apply current file system permission and ownership as discussed in the following sections. Failure to do so will cause your upgrade to fail.
For more information about file system ownership and permissions, see Overview of ownership and permissions.
One-user ownership and permissions
If you run the Magento application as one user (which is typical of shared hosting environments), change file system permissions and ownership as follows:
1
cd <magento_root>
1
chmod -R g+w var vendor pub/static pub/media app/etc
1
chmod u+x bin/magento
To optionally enter all commands on one line, enter the following assuming Magento is installed in /var/www/html/magento2
:
1
cd /var/www/html/magento2 && chmod -R g+w var vendor pub/static pub/media app/etc && chmod u+x bin/magento
After you set file system permissions, manually clear the var/cache
, var/page_cache
, and var/generation
directories.
A sample command follows:
1
rm -rf var/cache/* var/page_cache/* var/generation/*
Two-user ownership and permissions
If you run the Magento application with two users, enter the following commands as a user with root
privileges:
1
cd <magento_root>
1
find var vendor pub/static pub/media app/etc -type f -exec chmod g+w {} +
1
find var vendor pub/static pub/media app/etc -type d -exec chmod g+ws {} +
1
chown -R :<web server group> .
1
chmod u+x bin/magento
To optionally enter all commands on one line, enter the following assuming Magento is installed in /var/www/html/magento2
and the web server group name is apache
:
1
cd /var/www/html/magento2 && find var vendor pub/static pub/media app/etc -type f -exec chmod g+w {} + && find var vendor pub/static pub/media app/etc -type d -exec chmod g+ws {} + && chown -R :apache . && chmod u+x bin/magento
