how can you resolve this error:

Unable to change permissions for file /httpdocs/foldermain/somefolder: filemng failed: chmod: changing permissions of `/var/www/vhosts/domainname/httpdocs/foldermain/somefolder': Operation not permitted filemng: Error occured during /bin/chmod command.

please...help us to resolve this
 
Hello,

This looks like somefolder is owned by apache.apache, just login on that machine as root and type:

chown ftpusername.psacln /var/www/vhosts/domainname/httpdocs/foldermain/somefolder

After this you'll be able to chmod that folder from Plesk.
 
i try change the permission but it still not working..
i make a folder but it still not working 2...
it says"Unable to create directory /httpdocs/yazola36010/admin/me/rr: filemng failed: mkdir: cannot create directory `/var/www/vhosts/domainname/httpdocs/yazola36010/admin/me/rr': Permission denied filemng: Error occured during /bin/mkdir command.
