Fedora :: Permissions Denied For GVFS - All Folders Locked
Nov 16, 2010
I just converted to Fedora from Ubuntu and I have some questions:
1. How can I install nvidia driver? There is no 'jockey-gtk' in my fedora :3 (video card is nvidia 7200GS)
2. whats the equivalent for 'ubuntu-restricted-extras' in fedora? (ubuntu-restricted-extras is a package for A/V codecs, Java, microsoft fonts and Flash plugin)
3. I just move data from other hard disk to the fedora ones and now all the folders are locked (lock icon).
I try with:
su
chown -R fedora:fedora /home/fedora
but the permissions are denied for gvfs.

When I use nautilus open my home directory, everything is OK except that the file contents in the home directory are not presented. It seems that nautilus is still waiting and busy.
After that, I try to enter the user's home directory by the Terminal and succeed. I can use 'ls' to display the file in the home directory, But when I use 'ls -a' to print the hiden files, again the Terminal seem to be lock. the 'ls -a' is locked, I fail to 'kill' it.
At last, I find that everything that connects to the behavior which need to enter, delete or just dsplay the /home/$USER/.gvfs will fail and lock, and without any error message.

I am having a problem with a script I am developing to restore a profile from a snapshot. It is part of a deployment strategy for patron computers at our county library. Every night I run the script to restore the "guest" account from a a preset snapshot. Basically this is what the script does:
1 Kill the guest login session if logged in
2 Copy Firefox places.sqlite to backup # preserve for audit trail
3 Remove /.backup/guest.Backup # previous CYA copy of guest account
4 Move /home/guest to /.backup/guest.Backup # New CYA backup of guest
5 Un tar snapshot of guest to /home/guest
6 Copy saved Firefox places.sqlite from step 2 to guest account
The problem I am having is I am getting an error:
rm: cannot remove `/.backup/guest.Backup/.gvfs': Is a directory
What is the best approach here. I wouldn't think killing the gvfs-fuse-daemon is the solution. I think I just want to temporarily disable it to the restore and prevent the error being generated. I want to get this script ironed out, because I want to deploy this on about 15 workstations.

root@ubuntu:~# ls -la
ls: cannot access .gvfs: Permission denied
I understand that with a desktop active, shelled as root, I could get this message. Does this kind of behavior effect applications like MYSQL, PHP, Apache etc?

I have recovered most of my USB drive, but a couple of folders are locked and look like files. I'm unable to change permissions on them and "You are not the owner so you cannot change these permissions." appears in the properties tab. The owner is "184444735 - user #-184444735" and the group is "17414907" which makes no sense to me. Most other folders and files are OK. The disaster I recovered from was a partition move that failed. I used fsck to get most things back. Any idea how I get these couple of folders (the most important one is one of them "Documents" of course). to be visible?

My spare laptop refuses to load into the OS (it's running 10.10) or even give me a log-in screen - it sits there with a blinking cursor in the corner of a black screen. It's a 7 year-old laptop I mainly use as a mediacenter, which means I keep very little on it so I figured I'd just do a complete reinstall and move on.
So I threw in a livecd to grab the one folder I needed before I was going to wipe the drive, but apparently at some point this folder got permission locked, and it won't let me open it or copy it to an external through the livecd. Is there any way I can get at this folder?

I was just using my computer today, and upon restarting, my sound has been disabled, I cannot change my power settings (via CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor on the panel) and cannot mount drives.
Link to a screen shot: [URL]
I've gone to terminal, "sudo users-admin" and enabled all for my account, but nothing.

Recently updated the kernel in Ubuntu 9.10 and for some reason now, a folder which was not read-only now is. I can't delete anything from it. Have tried using the GUI for changing permissions, however, it has a mind of it's own and won't unlock the folder.
Anyone had this happen where a folder locked when you didn't want it to be?

I'm pretty new to Linux. Though I've used it for a little bit, I barely know any shell commands. I recently migrated from Mint to Fedora. Installation went fine and I thought I was doing great until I tried to copy something onto one of my ntfs partitions (I got them automounted through changing fstab). Now I can't change the permissions with sudo chmod... it says I can, but nothing changes. And, while the folders are listed as allowing rw for the user group I set up, I can't actually change anything. I'm guessing I've done something wrong with my fstab file.
My fstab file is:
Code:
I should probably note that I'm using NVIDIA fake RAID 0, which is why my device locations are all /dev/mapper/nvidia_fcficeibp#
The command I have tried to change permissions is:
Code:

I have three partitions. One for each: Windows, Debian and my files. I wanted a partition available in all systems, so I created FAT32 and mounted it as /data and drive D. In linux I created symlinks in my /home folder to /data/documents/xxx/xxx. I wanted to save my projects on that partition, but in every IDE I tried I get the permission denied error.
Screenshot
What should I do to make /data writable for IDEs? As normal user I have full access to it.

how to configure it. What I am trying to is this: I have a departmental folder housing two sub folders. The permissions on the parent folder for the department are 770 and the users from that department are all in a group based on their departments name.
One of the users who is granted access as a member of the group needs to be denided access to one of the two sub folders. How do I allow all users in the department into the first folder (this works already) but at the same time allow all but one into the second folder?

I'm trying to create a folder using the archive manager to install Resin (web server) in the usr/local folder but I get the error message 'error creating directory: Permission denied.'
Is this the easiest way to install an app--by using the Archive Manager--and if so how do I establish the correct permissions.

My Torrents will not start due to a "Permissions denied" error.The folders with the files being download have it set 777, so I'm thinking it's something else.When I look at the auth log, It does appear that it is that folder causing the issue.I can keep guessing the cause of permissions, but I do not know how to trace the problem.

I've a problem on one of my servers with file permissions. Quite simply , when I run chmod 777 -R against a folder , it seems to be inconsistent on making that particular folders permissions trickle down to the folders beneath. Some folders inherit its permissions , some don't. For example...
/projects
Contains
/Jan /Feb /Mar /April
They all in turn contain folders marked /1 , /2 , /3 , up to /10, these folders all contain more folders , running to a depth of 6.
However , depending on what folder our users save their files into , some are saved with rwxrwxr-- , some get saved with rwxrwxrx. Forgive my lack of understanding but if I run the above command against the top level folder will this not make every folder and file below it inherit its permissions of 777 ?? Or is there something else that I need to do?

I have a Samba share set up on a SUSE server that about 30 Windows XP clients are connecting to on a daily basis. They connect using Winbind and their Active Directory usernames and passwords which are stored on a Windows small business server (Server 2003). The share is called "company" and it's right off the root of the partition. Within "company" there are about 75-100 folders, most of which need to be publicly available and publicly writeable. There are a few that need to be locked down to a certain group of people so I've used group membership and access control lists for those.
The permissions on new files/folders still aren't right though, so I'll just try to explain what I WANT rather than trying to resolve what is HAPPENING since I think that'll be easier. Currently the entire company directory and all subdirectories and files are user-owned by "administrator" (an active directory domain admin). I'd like new folders and files created anywhere in that directory or any subdirectory to maintain that ownership by administrator, regardless of who creates them.
Likewise, the entire directory and all subdirectories/files are group-owned by "domain users" (a builtin active directory group which is pulled in via winbind) which gives everyone write access to everything. I'd like that ownership to be maintained as well on any new files or folders created in /company or any subdirectory therein. I think this is working for the most part as I've set the setgid bit on company. I'd like any files or folders created in /company or any subdirectory therein to have 770 permissions (rwxrwx---).
So, what I want is regardless of who creates a file or folder anywhere in "company" - it should be owned by user "administrator" and group "domain users" and have 770 permissions. I'd like to make a little tweak to this post. Above I said I wanted anything created under Company to be created with group owner "domain users" - that actually only goes for anything that will be public. On the folders I have locked down via group membership and ACLs the new files/folders created within should maintain ownership of whatever group owns that directory. I should be able to do this by setting rwxrws--- permissions on secured directories.

I mount a partition to a directory and ls -liah tells me that everyone has read/write/execute permissions on the whole thing, but I try to save a file into the partition and I get an access denied error. First of all this doesn't make sense because ls is telling me I do have access.
Then it gets weirder. I run sudo chown -R me:me directory. The command exits without error, but then when I go and look at the directory again with ls, it still shows up as owned by root and I still have the same problem. This is particularly strange because I am still able to change permissions normally in the operating system filesystem. It just won't work on the mounted partition.

Ok here is the deal, I am allowing my neighbor access to some networked folders on my ubuntu file server in exchange for access to their washer & dryer. I have already created mapped drives on their xp machines but now I want to only allow them "read only" access so they don't accidentally delete anything?

I tryed with:
Code:

I am using RHEL 5 on my server. The client machines are windows XP.File sharing is through samba server which is working okay. On this file server there is a shared directory for users. This directory contains files which are used by various users through oracle APP. and DB server.
At present the folders under the "shared" folder are having all permissions i.e. 777. To restrict certain things, I want that users may read and modify the files but may not be in a position to move or delete the files. How to set the permissions on the folders/files in this scenario?

I've created a new group and a new user called dftp... Now I wanna do one thing... If 'dftp' connects thru ftp he should be directed to a particular location... and he shouldn't be able to see other folder except for his own including the parent folder that contains that location... I changed dftp's home folder to the location I want. However while connecting thru ftp. user dftp has been given permissions to see other folders and check out the contents of the other folders.

Code:
