Joomla 5.3.1
jDownloads 4.0.47
Colin & Arno,
I found another permission issue in the file "admin/src/Table/DownloadTable.php: 1134-1143".
if (extension_loaded('gd') && function_exists('gd_info')) {
// move okay - create now thumbnail
$x = JDownloadsHelper::create_new_thumb($upload_dir.$filename, $filename);
// set correct chmod
@chmod($upload_dir.$filename, 0655);
// move ok - set new file name as selected
$images[] = $filename;
} else {
Factory::getApplication()->enqueueMessage( Text::_('COM_JDOWNLOADS_ERROR_CAN_NOT_CREATE_THUMB_IMAGE'), 'warning');
}
Why should a thumbnail image file require 0655 (-rw-r-xr-x), i.e. execute permissions for both group and others? I think 0644 (-rw-r--r--) should be perfectly sufficient.
Regards
Tom

Thanks. I am making a list of these. The items you are finding are hangovers from very much earlier jD versions when such permissions seemed to be required.
Generally these days we concentrate on items that cause jD to fail or 'misbehave'. When we have one of these or sufficient enhancements are accumulated then a new release is made. I suspect the Content Plugin may well turnout to be such a case
Best wishes
Colin.
