问题


I am trying to change the permissions of a files present in a directory and subdirectories using the below command and running into below error..can anyone help?

user@machine:/local/mnt/workspace$ find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
chmod: changing permissions of `./halimpl/ncihal/adaptation/NonVolatileStore.cpp': Operation not permitted

回答1:


you can run the following command:

 #chown -R directory_path

But it will change the permissions of directories also.

For only files, you can run.

 #find directory_path -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;

It also looks like you dont have enough permissions. try

 #sudo find directory_path -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;

or run the command as root user.




回答2:


It looks to me like you don't have permission to change NonVolatileStore.cpp.

Are you aware of chmod's -R switch that recursively changes permissions?




回答3:


if you have the root privilege, try:

sudo find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;  



回答4:


It could be that you simply don't own that file. Run an ls -l on it to see full permissions and who the owner is.

It could also be the filesystem is read only.
