I appreciate everyone's feed back. When I started this journey I failed
to understand that the docroot needed to be owned by a user that is SSH
enabled.
I am using Ubuntu 24.04lts with a standard LAMP config.
A friend who owns a hosting company pointed out that the docroot cannot
be owed by www-date:www-data AND have the ability to be edited remotely
using Visual Studio Code. He said I needed to configure my server to
use PHP-FPM so the Docroot can be owned by a SSH enabled user.
So I followed the following steps:
1) Add User and configured AllowUsers in /etc/ssh/sshd_config
2) Change that user's home directory to the docroot : sudo usermod -d
/var/www/domain.tld/public_html (this is for convenience only) user is
not jailed into the Docroot.
3) Configured PHP-FPM for multiple virtual hosts, this allows the SSH
user to be the owner of Docroot so I can add/edit/delete files and
directories using Visual Studio Code editing remotely.
4) Set owner for Docroot : sudo chown -R user:user /var/www/domain.tld
5) Visual Studio Code - edit remote using the Remote-SSH plugin.
I can add/edit/delete using VSC
I can view the index.php contents in my browser using a non-routable
domain domain-name.internal which is configured using the hosts files.
Given some simple testing everything seems to be working.
Thank you all for your responses. They help so much!!
