I have some UOJ code that runs a program on the database host and creates a file in _HOLD_.
This is on HP-UX 11, and _HOLD_ has these permissions: drwxrws--- 2 user1 live 37888 Mar 10 09:08 _HOLD_ But, when I run the UOJ program, the file gets created like this: -rw-r--r-- 1 user2 live 4729 Mar 10 08:59 FFAREP.02.WSMOAK.031004 We use a single user ID for all UOJ connections, so everything created by UOJ is owned by that user. These incorrect permissions (should be -rw-rw---) cause major problems because now if the user runs the report from the telnet interface while logged in as himself, he cannot overwrite the file. He keeps getting the last one created from the UOJ code (web interface) no matter what parameters he fills in. The permissions are set properly if I log in as myself and run the same program from the colon prompt: -rw-rw---- 1 user3 live 3158 Mar 10 09:28 FFAREP.02.WSMOAK.031004 (And if I just use touch to create an empty file.) I'm not sure what's happening. Is there a umask somewhere that's subtracting my group write permission? But a umask could not *add* the world readable permission, so I don't think that's it. Default permissions somewhere in the OS? If I have to I can always PCPERFORM a chmod in the program that creates the file, but I'd much prefer that it work the same way from UOJ as from the colon prompt. Does anyone know what's going on and how to fix it? -- Wendy Smoak Application Systems Analyst, Sr. ASU IA Information Resources Management -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
