file-permissions

I am trying to save some data from my app in a simple text file on the internal private storage area (app user preferences). I have read through many questions on here (StackOverflow) and tried the solutions suggested with no success. The simplest solution, it seems, would be the one suggested here: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/data-storage.html#filesInternal but I cannot get this to work on my test device. I have also tried to create the file using the methods available in the java.io.File with the appropriate methods. I have also tried to create the file on the SDCard with

How are the permissions for files created by RollingFileAppender determined? I recently changed a daemon process I have to be run as a non-root user and the files are now being created with permissions of 0600 (only readable by the owner), but I would like them to be readable by all or at least members of an admin group ( 0644 or 0640 ). Files created by my tomcat apps are always 0644 (readable by all). I don't know if I inadvertently changed something else or if it is something to do with permissions of that user. I made the parent directory 0777 as a test and it didn't seem to help (it was

It seems i cannot create files. When i set permissions to 777 On the folder i am trying to create a folder in then the script works fine. If the folder is set to 755, it fails. I do not know much about linux, but i am suppose to figure this stuff out. I have spent a couple hours trying stuff. Does anyone know how to make it so that apache has high enough permissions. I know it is a permissions and apache problem, i just do not know how to fix this. I have edited the httpd.conf file, but i really do not know what i am doing... Any help? (I saved backup.) Please stop suggesting to use 777. You

I've read through a few questions regarding file permissions in Git and I'm still a bit confused. I've got a repo on GitHub forked from another. Post merge, they should be identical. However: $ git diff --summary origin/epsilon master/epsilon mode change 100644 => 100755 ants/dist/sample_bots/csharp/compile.sh mode change 100644 => 100755 ants/dist/starter_bots/coffeescript/MyBot.coffee mode change 100644 => 100755 ants/dist/starter_bots/coffeescript/ants.coffee mode change 100644 => 100755 ants/util/block_test.sh mode change 100644 => 100755 manager/mass_skill_update.py mode change 100644 =>

This question already has an answer here: How do I change permissions for a folder and all of its subfolders and files in one step in Linux? [closed] 16 answers I have a web directory /www and a folder in that directory called store . Within store are several files and folders. I want to give the folder store and all files and folders within the store folder all permissions. How do I do this? I am guessing via .htaccess. petervaz If you are going for a console command it would be: chmod -R 777 /www/store . The -R (or --recursive ) options make it recursive. Or if you want to make all the files

How can I check file permissions , without having to run operating system specific command via passthru() or exec() ? Use fileperms() function clearstatcache(); echo substr(sprintf('%o', fileperms('/etc/passwd')), -4); You can use the is_readable() , is_executable() etc.. commands. Real coders use bitwise operations, not strings ;) This is much more elegant way of handling permissions: function checkPerms($path) { clearstatcache(null, $path); return decoct( fileperms($path) & 0777 ); } Use fileperms() function and substring: substr(decoct(fileperms(__DIR__)), -4); // 0777 substr(decoct
