Php sessions folder permissions issue after update - var/lib/php/sessions permissions

[Xavier12]

Hey guys,

It seems that every time we update/upgrade the system, the permissions for var/lib/php/sessions folder needs to be set to 777 in order for php to operate properly. We use nginx 99% of the time. Enabling the folder to 777 does not sound secure, what is the best way to resolve this in order to not constantly have to manually update the permissions each time? We are using Cloudlinux on CentOS

Please advise, thank you.

Several Plesk microupdates bring up newer PHP version, that reset permissions on "/var/lib/php/session" and sometimes microupdate script doesn't set it back. As far as I know this behavior has been fixed in one of latest microupdate.
