I do a "clean" root-only install; i.e., the only partitions that are formatted are the root and usr partition leaving the others untouched (so I don't have to restore the entire thing every time or fiddle with updating). That leaves almost everything in place with only a few edits and additions to make to get back in business; smart and dumb and the same time, sigh.
The partitions look like this for what it's worth:

Anyway, my web server comes up just fine and other applications work as expected except for Bugzilla and I can't remember what the heck it is I have to do to get it going again. I add a file, httpd-bugzilla.conf in the extra directory and include it at the end of httpd.conf:
Code:
In the above, /var/www/htdocs/bugzilla is not a symbolic link, Bugzilla is actually installed there (and has worked just fine for a long, long time). And, yeah, I know I'm not really supposed to do that but there it is.
I also run checksetup.pl which completes cleanly (it also sets permission masks and group) and double-check that localconfig looks like it ought to.
I installed wvdial on my Satellite Toshiba laptop. All works well but I have to use the <wvdial> command as root. If I try to use it as a user i get an error message Cannot open /dev/ttyACM0: Permission denied So Im just wondering; is it ok to use wvdial as root?
this error spams about 100 times, then the scanner does indeed work. So I'm not completely broken, but the error messages are of concern, and it slows down the process of scanning for the time it takes to do the messages.
Error in console:

In previous Slackware libsane releases, my scanner was not supported. In 13.1 the support is there:

Why am I suddenly getting "permission denied" both as root, and as the normal user (yes added to 'scanner' group)? What changed from the full DVD installation (using 2.6.33.4-generic and initrd) after added the the patches? I've been googling for months trying different "permission fixes" and fiddling with udev rules with no luck. So there is something I don't understand going on here.
ive been struggling with this for the past 4-5 days, and finally give up trying to solve it by myself. ive been following the guide here: [URL].. everything works up until i get to the iptables command, when i put it in, i get the following message:
Code: iptables v1.4.10: can't initialize iptables table `nat': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?) Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded. this led me to believe that i did not configure my kernel correctly, so i rebuilt my kernel, building in all the modules that were listed. unfortunately, the only ones that were actually present in the make xconfig were
When I try this yum install kvm qemu libvirt python-virtinst qemu-kvm I become this error
Transaction Check Error: file /usr/share/man/man1/qemu-img.1.gz from install of qemu-img-0.10.5-1.el5.2.x86_64 conflicts with file from package kvm-qemu-img-83-164.el5_5.25.x86_64
Google says this has something to do with Intel hardware and the way it handles real mode. run it with -no-kvm, but that's not much of a fix really.. so in the mean time I reverted to using qemu-kvm-devel-88 which works well, but is pretty old.
I have a user (let's call him John) who is not able to list contents of several 777 directories even though it appears he has permission to.
Case in point, as root:
Code:
Code:
If I use ls -a or strictly ls as john, I can list the contents of the nss directory:
Code:
That says to me that I have an issue listing permissions. Fine, I don't really need john to be able to list permissions. I want him to have rwx access to /media/nss/ENG which as you can see from my listing as root shouldn't be a problem since the perms on that dir are 777.
I am able to CD into the ENG directory or any other directory or subdirectory in /media/nss that has equivalent 777 perms, but once in the directories I can't list the contents:
Code:
I can get anywhere and do anything I want under the media/nss folder as john, except listing files. I even tried using an ACL i.e.
I am trying to give an SSH user on my server permission to compile C exploit with gcc, and I have had no luck. Every time i try to run gcc i get: "sh: /usr/bin/gcc: Permission denied. Has anyone else had this problem with this ?
I am in the process of setting up a new server (Debian - Lenny - now updated to Squeeze) and every things were going fine. But unfortunately from today , whenever a user login to ftp, it says
550 permission denied and not able upload / edit or remove any files ( i am able to see all files and folders)
Yesterday it was working fine..
I tried using bot Pure Ftp and Proftp and the issue is common
What I am trying to do is
add a unix user exalmple through adduser command with default directory for the user as /var/www/example.com (shell enabled)
owner of example.com is example
and using the above user name and password to ftp files to the folder
For some reason I am having some issues with permissions of some images. They don't render because they are not set to 644. Now for some reason when I uploaded these files onto my shared hosting with cPanel the files work fine and permissions are fine. I can see there is a permission issue for the files locally on my Mac (OS X - El Capitan).
When I changes these locally on Mac the permissions go all weird and are prefixed with Custom, rather than mac-user-name: Read & Write, staff: Read, everyone: no access. then changes to custom: read & write etc. So then i tried changing permissions on web server see below and I get permission denied and after all the files are gone, i can't delete the images folder through SFTP or SSH. I changed back the image to 755 and tried deleting and still nothing. Not sure what the problem is. Before I chmod I checked that the images are set to the correct user and group as per the rest of the site.
So I try: Code: Select alluser_name@debian:/var/www/html/_files$ chmod -R 644 images
and I get this return: Code: Select allchmod: cannot access ‘images/box-icon.svg’: Permission denied chmod: cannot access ‘images/ie-icon.svg’: Permission denied chmod: cannot access ‘images/google-plus-icon.svg’: Permission denied chmod: cannot access ‘images/mobile-ready-icon.svg’: Permission denied chmod: cannot access ‘images/404.jpg’: Permission denied
I have just installed 9.10 netbook remix onto my Eeepc 901. I was previously using 9.4 Rather than clicking on shutdown icons, or going through shutdown menus, I added a keyboard shortcut to run a shell script containing the following code:
Code: #!/bin/bash init 0 because init needs to be run as root to have the correct permissions, I set the owner and group to be root , ran chmod 711, then chmod u+s to prevent anyone altering the script, and to allow anyone to execute it with root privelidges Since updateing to 9.10 netbook remix, I have been unable to get this to work. have applied the above changes but get a "/bin/bash: /usr/bin/shutdownscript: permission denied" error when I try to run my shutdown script from the terminal (nothing happens when I press the key combination asigned to the keyboard shortcut). If I run the shutdown script with sudo then it neatly shuts down. ls reveals the following permissions:-rws--s--x 1 root root
So it appears as if SUID and SGID are both set, and the owner/group are correct, and the script works, and yet it doesn't have the permissions to work. I installed 9.4 long ago enough that I can't remember if I had to do anything else to get it working, or has something changed between 9.4 and 9.10?
I tried to execute the following command: $ ./eval_online_wiki.ml -db_user aa -db_pass bb -db_name cc It returned as follows: bash: ./eval_online_wiki.ml: Permission denied What does this mean? How to solve the problem? Actually, I was following a README, and it says "$ ./eval_online_wiki -db_user <username> -db_pass <pwd> -db_name <db_name>"
Forum.Ref:Ubuntu 10.4 Lucid LynxFluxboxOpera 10.61Has anyone a clue how I can solve following (minor but annoying) problem?It takes a relative long time (a few seconds) as normal user before Opera starts in my fluxbox environment. I expected a quicker startup time.Also because when I start opera as root the startup time is shorter.I started opera in a terminal. No messages when started as root with gksudoBut 5 lines of:open: Permission deniedwhen started as normal user. Startup succeeds after these messages.So I figured out that there is some kind of authorisation problem but have no clue how to find out which files opera tries to open and fails and what to do at this point.I searched for similar problems on this forum and also via google but could not find any real answers.
Currently I am having troubles getting my ssh key to work correctly. I have had a desktop crash which has been reformatted to use ubuntu. The key residing in id_rsa.pub has been copied over to the ssh server into the authorized keys of the given user. however When we try to login we get a "permission denied (public key, keyboard-interactive)" error. below is the debug option:
jv@ops-desktop:~/.ssh$ ssh -v jv@x.x.x.x OpenSSH_5.3p1 Debian-3ubuntu4, OpenSSL 0.9.8k 25 Mar 2009 debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config debug1: Applying options for *
I have a shared directory on another machine but I can't get it to mount. The permission denied doesn't say where/which permission is denied. Is it on the remote on on the local machine? The remote has sharing enabled for the shareddocs directory and after I have mkdir'ed the local mount point I open it's permissions too.
The verbose response from mount.cfis looks like this:

Im running Ubuntu 10.10 on my hp mini 110 netbook, have been for since i upgraded from 10.04. The problem Im having all of a sudden is when I try and copy anything from internal file system, to anything external [phone, card reader, usb hardrive] I get a pop up that says Error opening file '/media/disk/<filename>': Permission denied
Should be a quick fix i would think, what you guys got ???
I've done a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.04 and tried to create a folder using the File Brower went to my user account and proceeded to create a directory. Then when trying to cp a file to this new directory I get permission denied. I checked the directory permissions and discovered that its owner was root not the user that I was signed in as.
So I had no choice but to enable the root account so I could copy the file I wanted. Why could I not have copied the file using the user that I was signed/logged int as without resorting to changing users to root. I hope that its not a bug of some kind or maybe I did something weird during the install. I would like to disable the root account again.
I'm getting this error when trying to check my software installation. On sudo make check it fails and says that:I'm logged in as root.SLASHbinSLASHbash: line 8: .SLASHtest-indexer: Permission denied
I'm hoping someone can help me out with this issue I'm having using acl(s). I have a user I want to grant access to logs I have stored on my server. I am doing this by setting up an acl to that directory where the logs are stored. My settings seem to look fine, however I cannot read or even reach the directory with the said user; we'll call him "userP". Here is my code:
To ensure userP has access to the parent directory (jboss) code...
Not sure what I'm doing wrong here: there are no errors in the logs; just "Permission denied" however I try to get to the directory. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
I'm sure there is a very trivial solution to my problem but I just can't figure it out due to my lack of knowledge.I want to mount an nfs share share on client1. The share is on server1.The server1 /etc/exportfs has entry: /backup client1 rw,all_squash,no_subtree_ check) The client1 sudo mount works just fine: sudo mount server1:/backup /backup..Can anyone let me know how to mount the nfs whare with options to read/write permissions for a regular user. And then put that mount into /etc/fstab? Should I mount first and then change the ownership of that folder?
