Thank you for your prompt reply
As you have probably gathered I'm not an expert in Raspberry Pi Linux! Creating websites are more my line.
I have looked at apache2.conf file and the User and Group are defined as $(APACHE_RUN_USER) and $(APACHE_RUN_GROUP)
It is preceded by a comment saying 'These need to be set in /etc/apache2/envvars'
In that file there are the following lines:
export APACHE_RUN_USER=www-data
export APACHE_RUN_GROUP=www-data
It looks as though that is the cause of my problems.
Do I just change the above definitions to 'doug' or should I change the ownership and user group of the WordPress files? If so what is the easiest way to do it, bearing in mind my limited experience of Linux?
Many thanks
Doug
