Folder permissions keep changing from www-data to root
A folder under the directory /var/www/xml keeps changing permission from www-data to root meaning that no php file is able to write into the folder.
This seems to happen when I restart the server.
drwxr-xr-x 6 root www-data 4096 Sep 10 13:40 xml
chown www-data -R /var/www/xml
drwxr-xr-x 6 www-data www-data 4096 Sep 10 13:40 xml
How do I make sure this does not happen?

you can change the owner of the www folder it will solve it
sudo chown user /var/www
and logout and login.
Then open the var folder, right click on www folder select properties
now you can edit the permission of the www folder.
