Just deployed a radicle theme to the staging server and I’m getting this error:  
`"There is no existing directory at "/domain.com/site/storage/logs" and it could not be created: Permission denied"`  
This is wired, as the folder has 0777  
The error happens in `domain.com/site/vendor/monolog/monolog/src/Monolog/Handler/StreamHandler.php`  
Any idea? Thanks

Ok, I found out.  
Had to set site folder to 0777.  
Is this how it should be?

`777` is probably too permissive. How are you deploying your site?

Theres a good bit of existing articles/docs you can reference regarding permissions for both WordPress and Laravel sites
