Descripción
# problem
Retrieving diagnostics from a system VM fails. The archive is collected on the target VM, but the async job then errors and no download URL is produced:
```
Unable to create a link for entity at diagnostics//diagnostics_files_.zip on ssvm, Error in creating directory =mkdir: cannot create directory '/var/www/html/userdata//': Permission denied
```
Expected: the job succeeds and returns a usable download URL.
# versions
- CloudStack 4.22.1.0 (management and agents)
- System VMs from the stock `systemvm-kvm-4.22.0` template, not customized
- KVM hypervisors, NFS secondary storage
# The steps to reproduce the bug
1. Run `getDiagnosticsData` against a running system VM, e.g. `cmk get diagnosticsdata targetid= files=/var/log/cloud.log`.
2. Wait for the async job to complete.
3. The job fails with errorcode 530 and the error above.
# What to do about it?
The download directory is created as the `www-data` user ([UploadManagerImpl.java#L277-L291](https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/blob/4.22/services/secondary-storage/server/src/main/java/org/apache/cloudstack/storage/template/UploadManagerImpl.java#L277-L291)), but the docroot on the SSVM is not writable by `www-data`. Shipping `/var/www/html/userdata` owned by `www-data` in the system VM template, or creating it as root and chowning, would fix it. `extractVolume`/`extractTemplate` downloads use the same directory and may be affected as well; only the diagnostics case is verified.
Workaround on a running SSVM: `mkdir -p /var/www/html/userdata && chown www-data:www-data /var/www/html/userdata` (lost on SSVM recreation).
Guía de contribución
Línea de trabajo
Comienza con las líneas 277-291 de UploadManagerImpl.java y reproduce getDiagnosticsData contra una VM de sistema en ejecución usando el comando del issue. Comprueba cómo la plantilla de SSVM crea /var/www/html/userdata y le asigna permisos, incluidos los recorridos relacionados de extractVolume y extractTemplate. Se considera terminado cuando el trabajo asíncrono tiene éxito y devuelve una URL de descarga utilizable sin una solución manual.
