Y'all;
I am having an issue that is really starting to put me on edge. No matter what
the perms are of a file, when geany saves it, they are 0644, period. It doesn't
matter what type of file it is (shell script, txt file, perl, etc).
I have done a complete uninstall and reinstall.
I have looked through the previous bug reports and done some searches to see if
others have had this issue. It appears to have been an on-going deal, with
threads simply ceasing to continue and being closed after a while. I found, and
tried the hints from:
http://wiki.geany.org/config/all_you_never_wanted_to_know_about_file_saving
I have tried a number of combinations from the above web page, with no change.
It is currently set to:
use_gio_unsafe_file_saving=true
use_atomic_file_saving=false (was true when installed)
gio_unsafe_save_backup=false
I have systematically attempted all 8 possibilities of the above three settings,
with no change. I:
* make the change
* remove the file from the project
* close the project
* do a "completely uninstall" geany (using synaptic)
* chmod the file (0750)
* install geany (just geany and geany-common)
* open the project
* add the file to the project
* change the file
* save it
* ls -l shows 0644
Just for giggles and grins: umask is 0022. It is obvious this isn't the cause,
or the perms would be 755 -- which I could deal with for the time being.
I am currently using geany 1.23.1 on linux mint 14.04. I noted it was not the
"latest and greatest," so I added the PPA to the system, and voila, the upgrade
manager automagically upgraded me to 1.25.
So I created a new project, added a bash script to it (original perms 0700),
made a trivial change, and sure enough, the perms became 0644.
I cannot continue to deal with having to reset the perms every time I edit a
file. What needs to change? What do I have to do to force geany to quit
resetting the perms to 0644?
This started several months ago, but I thought it had something to do with my
Vagrant configurations and the fact that I am working in 4 different OS/Version
configurations. But today's testing has all been on one system (one which worked
perfectly several months ago).
Tips/tricks/pointers/answers appreciated!
Hi,
Not really an answer but a data point. I'm using Geany 1.25 with Ubuntu
14.04 and I can edit/save executable bash scripts fine without messing
up the permissions. My settings are:
gio_unsafe_save_backup=no
use_atomic_file_saving=false
use_gio_unsafe_file_saving=true
The only thing that comes to mind for your problem is that the file
system is not supporting permissions correctly (ex. FAT32, Samba, etc).
Cheers,
Matthew Brush
