Everything there is owned by root. How far up should I chown things to www-data?

I'm attempting upgrades of my install. 

---- 
composer install doesn't work for me, but `./composer.phar install` does. 
---- 


---- 

root at ixpm:/srv/ixpmanager# bower prune 
bower ESUDO Cannot be run with sudo 


Additional error details: 
Since bower is a user command, there is no need to execute it with superuser permissions. 
If you're having permission errors when using bower without sudo, please spend a few minutes learning more about how your system should work and make any necessary repairs.

You can however run a command with sudo using --allow-root option 
---- 

However, I can't find a non-root user the bower commands actually work with. What's the appropriate way for this to actually work?
