I have got myself confused. I am running dirvish locally. (I rsync to a directory on this linux box, and then run dirvish using this directory as the client files).
Every now and then (!), the resulting image directory is locked up with root permissions rather than my default user permissions. That means that I cannot access the directory (without sudo) but also dirvish cannot access it either and I get errors. I am not running dirvish as root. Now I tried running dirvish as root, but then of course all the images are created as root, which is not what I want. I am not concerned with preserving original file ownership or permissions. I surmise that I get root permissions on the image directory when I have run sudo for another application and the password is still live. Would that be correct? To get round it I am running sudo chown -R user:user on the image to ensure permissions are back to where I want them. This seems to work (and does not seem to affect the efficiency of the hard linking as has been suggested elsewhere). Any suggestions as to better ways of doing this would be welcomed!
