Can't location be specified at runtime? If yes, either user is root and there is no pb, either he should copy var/lib/prokka to a writable dir and specify location at runtime. For a multi user env, it would be weird for a tool to allow anyone on server to modify a central db. Creating a group may not be enough. For reading, ok, but to modify a file (db) created by an other user, it depends on software, if filebus created in mode 77x ou 75x. If file is created in 75x even bein in group will not allow for modification Olivier > > I do not see any other option. But I'm wondering if its worth > the effort.
