cannot access folder though I have right
Though I am a member of the group "shortfall", and there are group access
rights (rwS) for the folder db/rev/1, I cannot access it. I also have
disabled the SELinux totally to isolate the problem. May anyone tell me why
I cannot access the folder? Followings are the diagnostic info:
[chensy@chen working]$ ls -l /home/svn/shortfall/db/revs/
total 8
-rw-rwS--- 1 chensy shortfall 115 Sep 13 13:04 0
-rw-rwS--- 1 root shortfall 2238 Sep 13 13:04 1
[chensy@chen working]$ more /home/svn/shortfall/db/revs/1
/home/svn/shortfall/db/revs/1: Permission denied
[chensy@chen working]$ whoami
chensy
[chensy@chen working]$ getent group shortfall
shortfall:x:525:chensy,lanhai
[chensy@chen working]$ su -
Password:
[root@chen ~]# sestatus
SELinux status: disabled

Is this a local, physical file system? Or a network based system, on
NFS, ZFS, BTRFS, my cousin-ernie-FS, or some other oddness?
I'm wondering if you have some underlying filesystem issues.
Also, RHEL 6 and CentOS 6 aree out and quite stable. I'd definitely
upgrade for Subversion servers: while the subversion is not noticeably
different if you keep updates, the httpd and SSH upgrades are well
worth it. I've actually switched to Scientific Linux 6, and much
prefer it.

A user's group membership list is set at login time.
So you need to logout and login.
No need to reboot, though it has the same effect.

Thanks Andreas.
Even if I logout and login manytimes, I still cannot access the folder.
However, after I reboot the CentOS5, I can access the folder.
I have to say, this immediately reminds me Windoze, where reboot is a must
for many scenarios.
Is there an explaination why a linux system needs reboot before the group
access right is allowed?
The script I wrote to create a new svn project is in the following. I always
su to root to execute this script since the commands groupadd and usermod
are root commands.
======== scripte createproject.sh ======
#!/bin/sh -v
echo Usage: createproject projectname username1 [username1 username2
username3 username4]
if [ $# -gt 4 ]
then
echo too many parameters
exit 1
fi
if [ $# -lt 2 ]
then
echo too less parameters
exit 1
fi
svnadmin create /home/svn/$1
groupadd $1
usermod -a -G $1 $2
if [ $# -eq 3 ]; then usermod -a -G $1 $3; fi
if [ $# -eq 4 ]; then usermod -a -G $1 $4; fi
chown -Rv $2 /home/svn/$1
chgrp -Rv $1 /home/svn/$1
chmod -Rv g+rws /home/svn/$1
cd /tmp
svn checkout file:///home/svn/$1
cd $1
svn mkdir doc
svn mkdir paper
svn mkdir src_ampl
svn mkdir src_c
svn mkdir src_matlab
svn propset svn:ignore . -R -F ~/ignorelist
svn commit -m "created project"
cd ..
rm -fr $1

All the best,

Stupid question: Did you logout and login after you have added yourself to the shortfall group?

Guten Tag Michael Chen,
am Mittwoch, 14. September 2011 um 14:16 schrieben Sie:
> [chensy@chen working]$ more /home/svn/shortfall/db/revs/1
> /home/svn/shortfall/db/revs/1: Permission denied
Just to be sure you should provide the permissions for the folder
directly, too.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
Thorsten Schöning
