How do I fix the write permissions needed by Updater?

Check for write permissions

The following places can not be written to:

  • /var/www/nextcloud/updater/…/console.php
  • /var/www/nextcloud/updater/…/.htaccess
  • /var/www/nextcloud/updater/…/version.php
  • /var/www/nextcloud/updater/…/status.php
  • /var/www/nextcloud/updater/…/AUTHORS
  • /var/www/nextcloud/updater/…/cron.php
  • /var/www/nextcloud/updater/…/public.php
  • /var/www/nextcloud/updater/…/.user.ini
  • /var/www/nextcloud/updater/…/index.php
  • /var/www/nextcloud/updater/…/index.html
  • /var/www/nextcloud/updater/…/occ
  • /var/www/nextcloud/updater/…/robots.txt
  • /var/www/nextcloud/updater/…/remote.php

Potential Solution:
chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/nextcloud

But I’m also concerened how “Setting Strong Directory Permissions” conflicts with the above solution.
