Jira (PUP-9394) File mode X should work with the = operator
Title: Message Title Josh Cooper commented on PUP-9394 Re: File mode X should work with the = operator Given puppet has pretty much always had "0644 → 0755 behavior" for directories, I don't think we should attempt to change that behavior when using symbolic file modes, as it would be inconsistent when not using symbolic file modes. Also using syntax that looks like what you'd pass to chmod, but actually behaves differently could be surprising in a bad way (granting more permissions than expected). Given that, we're going to close this.

Jira (PUP-9394) File mode X should work with the = operator
Title: Message Title Jacob Helwig commented on PUP-9394 Re: File mode X should work with the = operator So, adding "u=rX" support would directly contradict how chmod works from what I'm reading in the manpage where "X" only works with "+" (as is mentioned in the error message in the ticket description). X The execute/search bits if the file is a directory or any of the execute/search bits are set in the original (unmodified) mode. Operations with the perm symbol ``X'' are only meaningful in con- junction with the op symbol ``+'', and are ignored in all other cases. So, if we're trying to match chmod's behavior exactly, then this looks like something we couldn't do. Add Comment This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.7.1#77002-sha1:e75ca93)

Title: Message Title Josh Cooper commented on PUP-9394 Re: File mode X should work with the = operator chmod u=X will also add the execute bit to a file if it's not already set. I assume that's desirable to match the chmod behavior exactly, in which case puppet's current behavior (made readable directories executable) is not sufficient. /cc Jacob Helwig Add Comment This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.7.1#77002-sha1:e75ca93) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.

Jira (PUP-9394) File mode X should work with the = operator
Title: Message Title Daniel Parks created an issue Puppet / PUP-9394 File mode X should work with the = operator Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2019/01/03 12:13 AM Priority: Normal Reporter: Daniel Parks Setting mode => 'u=rwX,go=rX' or similar symbolic modes on File resources fails with the following error: File[/foo]/mode: change from '0755' to 'u=rwX,go=rX' failed: X only works with the '+' operator at "u=rwX" in symbolic mode "u=rwX,go=rX" It would be helpful if X worked with the = operator. In that case, it would only set the execute bit if the resource represented a directory. I realize that this isn't the way chmod works. I know that I can use '0644' and it will automatically apply '0755', but that's weird and surprising. Using X in symbolic mode is much clearer and more intuitive. Add Comment
