Permissions Not Preserved When Saving/Copying to OS X 10.4 Server

The Setup:
One G4 Running Mac OS X 10.4 Server
6 Clients Running OS X 10.4
2 Clients Running OS X 10.5
The Problem:
When saving or copying documents from one of the 10.5 clients to the 10.4 server, group write permissions are not preserved.
What I've Done:
Changed the umasks on the 10.4 machines to 002 so that the group would have write permissions. This worked fine on those machines. Files created on those computers have group write enabled. Files saved or copied from those computers to the server have group write enabled.
Changed the umasks on the 10.5 machines to 002 (by creating /etc/launchd-user.conf per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2202). Files created on these machines have group write enabled. If I save a file directly from an App on these machines to the server, group write is not enabled. If I copy a file with group write enabled from one of these machines to the server, group write will be disabled on the copy on the server.
I tried disabling ACLs on the 10.5 clients. Made no difference.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

Same boat, the best I came up with was a cron job to fix permissions every 5 minutes. I'm about to do some heavey testing to see if I can figure anything out.

    I guess you need to fix it
    Or if you would like some help provide some information - there are no mind reader supporting this forum and we can only work with the information you give us - right not that is "it does not work"
    iPhoto has no "save to PDF" function - exactly what are you doing? and what exactly do you want to do?

    I got more than 100 users. Shes the only one getting is. We tried four computers (All Windows 7 Pro)
    Nothing useful in event viewer to mention.

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Does that user able to login previously?
    From your comment, it seems that there is some permission issue with that user. As you have checked that user with different system also. Please check that user is added under “Remote Desktop User” local group and also allowed “Allow log on through
    Remote Desktop service” permission under group policy. Also please check that when user tries to login it uses “Domainname\Username” format.
    In addition for a try, also check by disabling firewall on one particular system.
    To add users and groups to the Remote Desktop Users group by using Local Users and Groups snap-in:
    1.  Click Start > Administrative Tools, Open Computer Management.
    2.  In the console tree, click the Local Users and Groups node.
    3.  In the details pane, double-click the Groups folder.
    4.  Double-click Remote Desktop Users, and then click

  • "This operation is not permitted" when saving PDF through a plugin

    Not sure what I am doing wrong. It appears as though I've followed the PDF Reference and documentation correctly, but I am getting this error when my plugin trys to save my PDF file to a new location (dont want to overwrite the original).
    Here is the sample code. I hope what I am doing wrong is easy to fix.
    PDDocClose(currentPDDoc);
    ASPathName filePathName = ASFileSysCreatePathName(NULL, ASAtomFromString("CString"), replacedSavePath.c_str(), 0);
    PDDocSave(currentPDDoc, PDSaveIncremental | PDSaveLinearized, filePathName, ASGetDefaultFileSys(), NULL, NULL);

    Ahh the problem was that the file was secured with a password. The documentation mentions:
    Known Exceptions
    Raises
    pdErrOpNotPermitted if saving is not permitted. Saving is permitted if either edit or editNotes (see PDPerms) is allowed, or you are doing a full save and saveAs is allowed.
    So I looked for that exception in the docs and it said:
    pdErrOpNotPermitted
    This operation is not permitted. Acrobat
    security does not allow content copying
    or extraction. These operations should
    be permitted when the document’s
    master password is used.
    So for anyone getting this error, try removing security from the file first.

  • Business Rules Do Not Execute When Saving a Form

    When saving a form the attached business rules are not executing. Sometimes we are unable to validate business rules via AAS. When this happens we do a security refresh from Planning to Essbase and Essbase to Shared Services. At other times, we bounce planning and even Essbase and this seems to fix the problem. Today we have tried every combination (bounce planning, Essbase, AAS) and we are able to at least validate biz rules in AAS but we (i.e., users) are uanble to execute the biz rule when they save via the planning form. There are no issues running the biz rules when saving the form using an administration account. Can someone explain what's going on or provide direction as to why this problem happens and how to fix this issue?

    Hi,
    Well is your version 9.3.0.1? If yes then you have my sympathies :). We too have this version and face similar problems with Business Rules. Usually things come back to normal after following the steps mentioned above. However what I would want to know is the following:
    1) From where are you running the Business rules? I am asking this because if you are trying to run from Smartview then I would suggest you look at the time it takes for the Business Rules to execute. If it excedes the timeout settings then it will exit out. However the BR might still be running in the back ground. This you can confirm by looking at the data.
    2) Have you checked if you have installed all the patches?
    Hope it helps.

  • Source Timecode not preserved when making AC3 file

    First of all, this is my first time using Compressor so it is very likely that I have overlooked the obvious!
    I have created an AC3 Dolby Digital file in 5.1 from 6 wav files.
    All has gone well and I can successfully create the file and play it back, when reimported, via the preview window.
    My original 6 wav files all contain identical source timecodes.
    The resulting AC3 file does not appear to have preserved the source timecode.
    The preview window displays the timecode as starting from 00.00.00.00
    I have also imported the AC3 file into Final Cut Pro and confirmed that the timecode starts at Zero.
    My six original WAV files definitely have timecode.
    I cannot find any setting in Compressor that will let me alter the resulting file's timecode.
    If anybody could tell me what I have done wrong I would be very grateful.
    Thanks in advance
    Adam

    Having done a bit more investigation, I have found that AC3 files can have timecode embedded in them.
    Unfortunately Compressor does not preserve the source timecode but writes it's own, starting at 00.00.00.00
    Dolby Media Encoder SE (from Dolby) does give you the ability to preserve the source timecode - as do a couple of other programs - but they tend to be very expensive!
    I am not sure but I think that Final Cut Pro does not recognise the source timecode of an AC3 file - maybe that's why the option is not given in Compressor ?
    Thanks

  • Project will not open when saved to an external hard-drive

    Hi,
    Well, as the title says, I cannot reopen a project when saved to an external hard-drive, it will however do so when I save to a local drive... Not good if you wanna work around several workstations, any ideas as to why?
    Thanks,
    Phil.

    Are you using Final Cut Pro?
    You should be asking on that forum. It would be beneficial if you provided some concrete information, what computer, what drives, how are they formatted, how are they connected, what exactly happens when you try to open it?

  • Adobe Elements 9 not responding when saving changes

    Adobe Elements 9 says not responding when I save image changes. I does eventually save the image changes but takes awhile. Is this normal? My computer is rinning Windows 7 and I have 8GB of ram so I don't think that ram memory is the problem. Thanks

    In other versions of photoshop elements, you don't get the not responding
    thing at the top of the screen when saving png files, but it still takes a noticeable
    amount of time to save png's in other versions of photoshop elements and the full
    photoshop version.
    I haven't been able to find it yet, but there is a post somewhere in the photoshop forums
    where an adobe photoshop engineer explained why png's take longer to save than most
    other file formats, but ssprengel said something about the compression of png's which
    sounds like the gist of the post.
    There have been more than a few complaints about the not responding messages in pse 9
    on windows machines for various operations, but as far as saving images, the not responding
    message doesn't seem to hinder saving files, but it is very annoying.
    You might try posting here where several adobe employees answer questions:

  • Images not appearing when saving a Framemaker book to pdf

    As a new user to Framemaker, I have had great success with these forums in the past. So, thank you.
    First off, I am using Framemaker 12.
    I have had no problems in the past, but now when I save a file to .pdf it will not produce all the images with it. I saved the same files two weeks ago before reviews began and nothing was missing then. I have not changed anything with the files between then and now besides some textual (i.e. grammar) changes.
    Any suggestions?

    Are you using the CMYK or RGB option? Use the RGB one, if you're not creating press-quality colour output.
    What format are the images in? How were they created (i.e. which application)? Imported by reference or by copy?

  • IOS photo edits not preserved when I upload to Revel

    I imported my SD card into my iPad.  Since I was not connected to the Internet, I did not immediately upload my pictures to Revel.  I edited them (crop, exposure, etc.) using the built in iOS tools.  They looked great.  However, when I imported them into Revel all my edits were gone.
    Can't Revel preserve the iOS edits?
    I am using the latest iOS release and the Revel 2.0.

    You are correct that the app works this way. This  is part of the design decision for Revel to always preserve your original photo, despite edits and changes that applied on top of the original.
    If you wish to work around this and import the edit, then in the iOS Photos app, view the photo you want to import into Revel.  Long press the image until ‘Copy’ is displayed, and select that.  Switch over to Revel, and tap ‘Add.’  At the bottom of the grid of images, you’ll see “Clipboard” and the edited version of the image.  Import this, and you will have iOS-edited image in Revel. After importing this way, Revel will not be able to revert this image to its original form.

  • SDDM EA 3.1 - Import DDL information not preserved when using "SAVE AS"

    Hi!
    Imported DDL file information is not saved when doing a "SAVE AS" operation. For example you have model AAA.dmd and you use
    "SAVE AS" to save the model as BBB.dmd the imported DDL file information is lost. This is information that should be preserved
    in case the file needs to be imported again and also (perhaps more importantly) for the historical purpose of tracking where
    the model came from.
    Thanks!

  • Network files not showing when saving a document in Word 2010

    I have some users setup where their local profile on their laptop syncs with our server so they can take the laptop home, work on files, bring it back to work and have it sync with files and folders when they get back.
    One user is able to open a document in her "My Documents" folder (which syncs with the network drive).  She's able to edit the document however when she goes to save the document to the same folder, she doesn't see all of the files that are
    supposed to be in there.  If she just saves the file anyway and goes to her documents folder via Windows Explorer, she can see the file she saved as well as the other files.  
    I'm not sure why it's happening but it seems to only happen when she saves a file in Word.
    The affected user is running Windows 7 64-Bit with Word 2010.
    Any thoughts?

    Hi,
    What are the other files' types in that location?
    Suppose the user is trying to save a .docx file in that folder, she should only be seeing the same type of files as the type she's saving.
    You can have the user try to change the "Save as type" and check if she's able to see other files.

  • Bug Report:  "View PDF After Saving" Does Not Work When Saving as Photoshop PDF

    The saved PDF file is not opening in Acrobat after saving a file as a Photoshop PDF. I noticed it happening a few times in earlier beta testing, but today it happened again.
    I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 10.1.2 installed on MacPro with Lion OS 10.7.3. Photoshop public beta m415.  System info can be provided if needed.
    The file I was trying to save was about 8 MB. Once it failed to open after save, I tried varied PDF settings and save locations. Also tried several different files. All were saved properly as PDF files, but would not continue to open in Acrobat as previous versions have done. The files open properly when you click on the file names in saved location.

    I'm happy I could help and feel a bit proud to have found a real bug. The simplest work around is just clicking on the file list once it's done...that's certainly not a problem.

  • Tree expand / contract not working when region copied...

    Hi
    I have a tree view region which I want to appear on each relevant page. Simple, thinks I, I'll copy the region from page to page... but when I do this then the expand / contract buttons don't work. If I create a new tree region then paste in the code from the tree region I want to copy all works well...
    Using Apex version 4.0.0.00.46.
    Anybody else seen this?
    Steve

    >
    The existing page zero appears at the top of other pages, containing specific data. This Tree element only appears on the config pages and is on the left hand side of the page.
    >
    You've just caused me to make a discovery that I hadn't noticed in nearly 6 years of APEX use: Page Zero is assigned a page template! I've no idea why this is: I don't think it should; this template will have absolutely no effect on how the application is actually rendered so I therefore think we should ignore it and maybe it will go away...
    Has the presence of a page template on Page Zero influenced your thinking on its use?
    Understand that regions on Page Zero will not be rendered according to the Page Zero template, but according to the page template for the page they are included on. The region Display Points remain constant: if you assign the Tree element to region position 2 on Page Zero, and it's included on pages 6, 7 and 8, then it will appear in region position 2 on pages 6, 7 and 8. However, using page templates and CSS, region position 2 can be in completely different places on the screen on pages 6, 7 and 8 (and even be in different positions on the screen and on a printout from the same page...).
    The other main thing about Page Zero is that the rendering of regions can be controlled conditionally, often using the Current page in Expression 1 condition, where a list of page numbers specifies which pages a region should be included on. So to make your Tree region only appear on Config pages 6, 7 and 8, set its Display Position to Region Position 2, and give it a Current page in Expression 1 condition with Expression 1 set to <tt>6,7,8</tt>. If the "existing page zero" elements appear on every page except 6, 7 and 8 then use the opposite Current Page not in Expression 1 condition...
    Only very simple apps would tend to include all Page Zero regions on other pages in their entirety: most of the time there will be mix'n'match using conditional rendering.
    >
    Which raises yet another question (getting my 2 cents worth here!) - can we conditionally change the position of a region? eg if on app pages 1 thru 5 then page zero is at top. if on pages 6 thru 8 then appears on left side?
    >
    Hope I've managed to explain why that's not how it works?
    (And reflecting on the mysterious presence of a template on Page Zero, I can only think that it has something to do with the Display Point preview pop-up, even though it's entirely useless as a safe guide to where the region will ultimately appear...)
