ownCloud has developed a PHP file that you upload to your browser, and that takes care of everything for you. It also tells you what you need to install to continue the automated setup, i.e. missing dependencies.

SECURE YOUR OWNCLOUD
Download this script to set proper permissions to your ownCloud folder.
(Change “ocpath” and “htuser” user so that it fits your system, in Ubuntu 14.04 the path is
/var/www/html/ownloud
Though our recommendation is to always install the ownCloud core in
/var/www/owncloud
-
Run the script
:~$ sudo -i
:~$ nano /path-to-script/setup_secure_permissions_owncloud.sh
Here you set “htuser” and “ocpath” and check if the script is set up properly.
Save and exit the file with [CTRL+X] answer [y] and then [ENTER]
:~$ bash /path-to-script/setup_secure_permissions_owncloud.sh
