title: Amazon AWS Filezilla transfer permission denied
body: <p>I have my instance of the Amazon AWS running, test page is up. </p>
  
  <p>I am trying to SFTP the files to the server to display my website. I have Filezilla connected to the AWS server but when I try to move the files from my local machine to the /var/www/html directory, it says permission denied.</p>
  
  <p>I just figured out I CAN move the files to the /home/ec2-user directory. So my files are on the server I guess. But when I try to move them from there to the /var/www/html directory, it still won't move them, permission denied. </p>
  
  <p>I've been researching this for approximately 2 hours now but I haven't been able to locate the answer to this.</p>
  
  <p>Any help is greatly appreciated, i'm so close! Haha</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
  
  <p>UPDATE</p>
