Problem
As seen in #3002 , a user can correctly follow our docs to build from scratch, but end up with an unusable system since there is not step specifying that the
gunicorn
user needs to be able to write to some subdirectories under the root directory of their Mathesar system. In particular:.media
directory to create files when accepting uploaded TSVs etc.static
directory (I think; someone should double-check my theory on that).Proposed solution
Add a step or two in the documentation for building from scratch to either
chown
orchmod
the directories appropriately.Additional context
