I reckon that's a serious bug. Nothing should ever get written to the
webroot, it should be owned by root and inaccessible to the application.

Title:
  Sitemap generator tries to write to the web root

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Shouldn't they go into dataroot instead?

  If that's not going to work for some reason, we should disable the
  "generate sitemap" checkbox whenever the docroot is unwritable (99% of
  sites).

  Also, the help file for "generate sitemap" is currently missing - if
  sitemap generation requires the admin to mess around with directory
  permissions, it would be good to tell them about that somewhere.
