Hi,
I'm having a permission issue with SQLite on my institution's computing
grid/cluster.
When I create a file using touch (or any other program for that matter,
it correctly receives '-rw-rw----' as the permission. However, when I
create it from SQLite, it gets created with '-rw-r-----' (group does not
get write permissions, even if it should get them).
I've confirmed this both from the command line client (demonstration
script below) and from RSQLite (the SQLite library for R, demonstration
script is longer but could attach if anyone thinks it helps).
I've checked with my admins, and they tell me that there was nothing
unusual about how SQLite was installed. Any ideas for what could be the
cause of this? It seems that to override the umask setting, SQLite must
be doing something explicitly, right?

HOSTNAME [TestPermissions]$ sqlite3 DatabaseFile.sqlite
SQLite version 3.3.6
Enter ".help" for instructions
sqlite> .tables

HOSTNAME [TestPermissions]$ ll

-rw-r----- 1 mtorfason faculty 0 Sep 22 10:07 DatabaseFile.sqlite
-rw-rw---- 1 mtorfason faculty 0 Sep 22 10:07 TouchedFile.txt
## End reproduction script
