Permission error with go

This happened for me:
$ go install packagename
go install runtime: open /usr/lib/go/pkg/linux_amd64/runtime.a: permission denied
$ pacman -Q go
go 2:1.0.1-1
I didn't have this problem before updating Go.
I searched and found a similar problem reported for Debian here. The workaround on that page (fixing timestamps) fixed it for me, so that page may be helpful.

I don't have access to my Arch machine now, and even if I had I couldn't test this because I fixed the problem with the workaround I mentioned. So I'm afraid I can't help with that question. But I'm sure that my Go installation from source didn't have such a problem and even my package installation was fine until a recent update.

SSIS 2012 package runs under SSDT but fails with permission error from SSMS

I have a simple package that pulls data from a text file located on a Windows file server that runs successfully from SSDT on my client.
However, when deployed and running the package via SSMS from the client, the package fails with a permission error, with the error stating that the data file could not be opened.
I have done some investigation and have seen some info that states that a package run from SSMS runs under the account on which you are logged on to the machine, which I would have thought is correct. This is therefore the same account when running from
SSDT (which works) and I can see from the SSIS Report that the 'Caller' is stated as my account, so if this is the case why isin't the package working.
I've also seen an MSDN forum answer which stated the opposite that the package when run from the IS Catalog in SSMS doesn't run under the account on which the client is logged on with, which is the opposite of the above, but doesn't indicate which account
it is using.
So what account is being used to run SSIS 2012 packages from the IS catalog from within SSMS ?
If it is the account on which you are logged onto the client running SSMS, why is it not working when the account has the necessary permissions (as provent when running from SSDT) ?

I am aware it's using my account and not one of the service. There's nothing in the posts above which suggests I'm using the service account. I don't know why people keep assuming that I'm running the package from a job. I've never stated that in any of
the posts I'm running the package from a job. It's been made quite clear I'm running the package from the IS Catalog on SSMS:
"This is simply selecting a package from the IS Catalog, right-clicking and selecting Execute package.", as per the Nov 18 post, and in the original post "....So what account is being used to run SSIS 2012 packages from the IS catalog from
within SSMS".
Just to be clear, the package is NOT being run from a job. It's using the Execute package option when selecting the package within SSMS from the IS Catalog and it's running under the account on which I am logged on to my client.
Please read carefully. I was just answering your question "So what account is being used to run SSIS 2012 packages from the IS catalog from within SSMS ?" and stating that you where right and that it uses your account to run the package
when you execute a package manually from the Catalog and that you can prove that by logging the system variable.
A good suggestion about using a share in the task to map the drive and I will try this. I would find it strange that SSMS requires this mapping whereas SSDT does not though.
Ok let us know your findings. If it doesn't work you can also test it with a password and username:
net use f: \\financial\public yourpassword /user:username

Tons of permission errors after iLife updates....

I always repair permissions before and after any updates..
Before the iLife update I had just one permission error with cups or whatever, I always get that one...
After the iLife update, I am having hundreds of errors every time I repair.. I also had a kernel panic this morning..
I ran FSCK, hundreds of errors.
I've used disk utility to repair disk.. No problems found.
I've used Disk Warrior, No problems found..
Anyone else experience this? Should I try and reapply the standalone installer? I hate to reinstall any software with all these permission errors.
Advice?

Yes, everything seems to be working fine.. I reapplied the standalone, no longer have hundreds of permission errors, but still have about 50 each time I repair.. The report shows all errors related to front row and iPhoto..
If it's no cause for concern, I won't worry about it..
Thanks.

Disk permission errors

Hi, I just verified disk permissions for the first time.. my MBP is a month old. I was surprised to find hundreds of errors in the log, but they all looked similar, all for AirPort Utility, such as:
2010-05-15 10:40:10 -0400: Permissions differ on "Applications/Utilities/AirPort Utility.app/Contents/Resources/German.lproj/MoreInfo.strings", should be -rw-r--r-- , they are -rw-rw-r-- .
2010-05-15 10:40:10 -0400: Group differs on "Applications/Utilities/AirPort Utility.app/Contents/Resources/German.lproj/ProblemPanels.nib/keyedobjects.nib" , should be 0, group is 80.
2010-05-15 10:40:10 -0400: Permissions differ on "Applications/Utilities/AirPort Utility.app/Contents/Resources/German.lproj/ProblemPanels.nib/keyedobjects.nib" , should be -rw-r--r-- , they are -rw-rw-r-- .
2010-05-15 10:40:17 -0400: Group differs on "Applications/Utilities/AirPort Utility.app/Contents/Resources/Japanese.lproj/AAUAdvanced.nib/keyedobjects.nib" , should be 0, group is 80.
I don't notice any functional problems, but I'm wondering what these permission errors with AirPort Utility are about..?
Can these be left alone, or is it a good idea to run the repair?
Thanks,
Karen

you can but it probably won't do away with those error messages
I wasn't sure if that was a completely safe operation
it's safe, no worries
to do routinely
not routinely. see this read: _*Five Mac maintenance myths*_.
or if it should only be done if there is a noticeable problem.
it's a way to troubleshoot your Mac, yes.

Sharing video using MPEG2 comes up with no permission error, what do i do?

When I go to share my video using the MPEG2 setting, and I keeps throwing a permission error. Changing the file output location, running as admin, changing codec settings, making a new project all have not worked.
I also cannot burn to a disc as it throws a transcoding error, but I'm not sure if that's related to the first issue.
I am using Premiere Elements 10.
Thanks

Christopher
Thanks for the reply.
You have 2 known Premiere Elements 10 issues that need clearing out of the way to see what, if anything, is behind them.
1. There is a serious problem with Premiere Elements 10 run on a computer that uses a NVIDIA GeForce card.
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE10: NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
The answer has been and is to roll back the driver version to about May 2013 (no typing error). In your case, Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and the NVIDIA GeForce GT-545
As you see, the oldest driver version is July 1, 2013. That driver version may not be old enough. But worth a try if no where to go.
2. Please install QuickTime latest version on your computer with Premiere Elements.
Once both are ruled out, then back to the present....
1. You say
Every instance of using the MPEG2 codec it has always asked for activation instead of saving the code I put in.
Here is the error message I am getting:
Interesting, since I might expect to see an error message specific to MPEG2 Activation there instead of Error compiling movie.
You report that export to file MPEG2 and burn to DVD disc result in this error. What happens with burn to Folder (4.7 GB)? Same thing?
If none of the above, two possibilities
a. Uninstall, free ccleaner run through, reinstall with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.
b. Create a new user account with administrative privileges and install and try to run Premiere Elements 10 from there.
Please review and consider.
Thank you.

There has been a network or file permission error. The network connection..

hello,
there has been a network or file permission error. The network connection may be lost.
this is the error my client gets sometimes when he wants to save a word document.
when i go in the finder i have no problem accessing that network share, and when i look up the file and check the permissions there is no reason why this error should occure.
situation :
1 os 10.3.9 server
7 os 10.5.5 clients
1 os 10.3.9 client
office 2004 for mac (version 11.50)
there are 2 10.5.5 clients (emacs) with this problem on a regular base (3-5 times a week). One imac 17" 10.5.5 has this once a month.
it is a wired cat5 network.
any idea what could cause this problem?
thanks

I found a logical explanation on the following site : http://www.makemacwork.com/office-2004-wont-save-to-server.htm , I am gonna try the steps they describe and post back the result.

Error With Export/Print from Crystal Report Viewer

Hello there,
I've searched through the web and SAP discussion boards with not much luck with this issue.
After working through this for some days now I've decided to look here for help.
Environment:
I have created a web Crystal Report viewer application(Developed with SBOP BI Platform 4.0 SP06 .NET SDK Runtime) that communicates with a managed Cyrstal Server 2011 SP4 (Product 14.0)
I am able to connect and authenticate with the server, retrieve a token for communication and display reports in the Crystal report Viewer successfully.
Problem:
When I attempt to export, I receive the prompt to select format and pages.
When I click export after selections most times I receive an error with the text
Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to interface type 'CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.PropertyBag'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{74EEBC42-6C5D-11D3-9172-00902741EE7C}' failed due to the following error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE)).
Other times the page simply refreshes on export.
When I click to print, no print dialog is displayed the page always refreshes and no error is displayed.
No Print or Export document is ever created.
As many print/export issues seems to be related, I'm guessing this two issues are as well.
Notes:
I am utilizing the ReportClientDocument model
I am storing this in session to use as the crystal report viewer report source on postbacks
I am assigning a subset of export formats to the crystal report viewer
I am setting particular parameters as well on the report source
At this point I would appreciate every assistance I may receive on this issue
Thanks in advance,

Thanks Don for your response,
I'm new to the SCN spaces and my content has been moved a couple of times already.
In response to your questions
The runtime is installed on the web application server, if by that you mean the machine hosting the created .NET SDK application.
My question was whether it was also required on the Crystal Server 2011 (I.E. the main enterprise server with CMS and Report management and I guess RAS and all that). I figured this would remain untouched and queries would simply be made against it to retrieve/view reports e.t.c
If install of the SDK on Crystal Server 2011 is indeed required should I expect any interruption to any of the core services after a restart. I.E. I'm hoping that none of the SDK objects would interfere with the existing server objects (in SAP Business Objects)Reason I ask is I note that much of the SDK install directories are similar to the existing Crystal Enterprise Server 2011 (Product 14.0.0)
Is this temp folder to be manually created/configured or is it created by the application automatically to perform tasks. Or are you referring to the default C:\Windows\Temp directory and so saying that the application would try to use this for print and export tasks?Once I'm sure which I'd give the app pool user permission
Printing is to be client side but I figured by default (with the Crystal Report Viewer) it would simply pool and print from the user's printer. This is how it works with the previously used URL reporting approach (viewrpt.cwr). Therefore a user can print the document from wherever they are with their own printer.We don't intend on printing from the server machine, but are you suggesting that a printer must be installed on server (which one web or enterprise server) for any client side printing to work.
App pool is running in 32 bit mode
Initially didn't get anything useful from fiddler but I'd try and look closer on your suggestion.
It's also possible that some of my questions are a misunderstanding of APP vs RAS vs WEB, so please feel free to clarify. Currently I see the Web server as simply the created .NET SDK Application and RAS (Crystal Server 2011 e.t.c) as the existing fully established Application server which I simply pool for information.
Thank you for your patience and advice,

After installing 10.7.2 from scratch, permission errors remain

Hey, this is a summery of what have happened:
1. upgraded to Lion from SL (via AppStore)
2. have played with 'get info' > 'apply to all enclosed items' :/
3. things have gone messy, slow, permission errors. example:
(Warning: SUID file “System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent” has been modified and will not be repaired.)
4. booted from DVD of Lion dmg.
then, formatted and performed a clean install.
(backed up to a new disk image with CCC, just in case)
5. Notice that I did not copy anything or downloaded/installed a single file/application yet.
after the so called 'clean' install, I've ran the disk utility to verify permissions again (both from DVD and from cmd+R - recovery partition).
still I get the warning about ARDAgent, still verifying and repairing permission takes 2-3 minutes. with only the OS X installed on HDD.
6. Got this advice from several boards:
Open Terminal as an admin user.
type in the following:
sudo chmod -RN ~
you will have to authenticate with a non-blank password.
then follow the steps of resetting the ACLs.
I have done this, and got: Failed to clear ACL on file ubiquity.socket: Invalid argument
Then, booted from DVD, in terminal typed: 'resetpassword' and chose the HDD and "user" and clicked on 'reset password and ACLs'.
restarted, Spotlight did index againg.
7. still permission errors, so I didn't copy anything back yet, waiting for help to get the right way or restoring to default/formatting again.
My questions are:
1. Did I do everything right? Is it possible to perform a clean install from the DVD that I made?
2. If so, shouldn't it cancel all the ACLs problems and reset them to the default?
3. Is there a way to make a real 100% clean install of 10.7.2, with erasing even the recovery partition (if it has to do with ACLs)?
4. if and when this will be solved, I will need to copy back my files and folders from external FW800 WesternDigital,
will I need to reset their permissions too somehow? It could cause more problems with the ACLs.
thank you very much.

baltwo,
I have a lion clone. so I guess there is no reason to install lion upon it's own clone.
anyways, how is it possible that after the complete format, the ACL problem remains.
what about removing the recovery partition.
the reason I want it to be done is to get rid of the problems I had with the new installation, tham I'm afraid will not be fixed otherwise: crashing apple applications (safari quitted unexpectedly), slow performance, computer freezes, GUI lags (copying 138 items to another folder stucks and I have to relounch finder) and other animation bugs at almost everywhere on the system.
restoring lion clone and turning on the time machine sounds like the last option right now...
and I'll be happy to hear opinions about what to do with the backed up data on the external hdd permissions.

Errors with Time Machine (not completing backup, and needing to erase the ".inProgress" package)

I have in a previous discussion been talking about errors with my Time Machine backup. The errors were with a problem with Indexing a file, it fails and stops the whole backup. Each time it attemps another backup, it fills my ".inProgress" package with a (nearly) whole backup, filling my Time Machine hard drive, and thus errasing my previous good backups. The error occurs after about 95% completion.
In my last post of a similar disscussion, the problem was indexing the Preference Pane files and this caused the whole backup to fail. This was my last post there: (below in some additional info of my situation)
I did exclude the MobileMe.prefPane. And I got:

This time it was the Mouse.prefPane that caused the error. I'd like to exclude the entire PreferencePanes directory.
This was my error message this time:
I just realized this was on my small Developers partition. Perhaps there is an error with the build, OR an error with the initial restore. I'd like to perhaps exclude the entire /Volumes/Mac OS Lion GM. I expect that Time Machine is working fine with my main partition and the error happens when it's almost done with the Mac OS Lion GM partition.
The problem now is that I only have 265 GB of 3 TB available on my Time Machine HDD. If attempt another backup, it'll surely erase about 410 GB of my past saved backups. I've already lost 6 months, and I only have two months left of backups. I need to erase the ".inProgress" package again. That'll take time, and it's impossible to do from this main partition, even at root access. This ".inProgress" has a total of two (nearly) full backups; it didn't cleanup the first full backup attempt while starting the second,perhaps it would have had it finished. But I fear even if I exclude the whole "Mac OS Lion GM" partition, It'll create a third full backup before cleanup and erase ~400 GB of previous good backups. Then, I'll have a total of 4 (nearly) full backups! 3 TB is just enough without any past backups.
Maybe I'll just copy my documentations of my 'errasing the ".inProgress" package' last time (from the Mac OS Lion GM partition) and do a full restore of just that partition. Thus erasing the errors all together. If it doesn't fix the errors then this could be a bug in the build that doesn't allow Time Machine to work. I've always included this partition in Time Machine before, even with other Lion builds, so I suspect that it was an error in the initial restore. (I may be answering my own questions, and that the inital restore (of the small partition) is the problem, and I just need to re-restore the small partition)
Again, I'm going to have to erase the ".inProgress" file to regain 1.53 TB of space before proceeding.
Also, I gave myself permission to read the ".Backup.345781513.887697.log", the log that was created last night when I first started Time Machine this last time. It was interesting, but didn't show the error I could see from the console.
Right now, mds and mdworker appear to be going crazy even after I just now turned off Time Machine. I think I'll let it go for the rest of the night. Then I'll work on erasing the ".inProgress" package from the other partition boot up.
That was my entire last post. To add some information, I have two OS X partitons, both Mac OS X Lion. One is my large main partition, the other is one I don't mind testing with. I recently replaced my internal hard drive in my iMac and restored from Time Machine both partitions. This appeared to go smoothly. But I have yet to create a single successful Time Machine backup since. At first it was doing a Full Backup, which I didn't like, but now it just aborts around 95% completion. Each, time, it tries it fills the Time Machine hard drive with duplicate (nearly) full backups errasing my older good backups. I would like to erase the ".inProgress" file to save space.
My main question in this new discussion is does anyone know of a good way of erasing the ".inProgress" file? This is so I can preseerve my previous backups. ACLs and other permissions seem to make it impossible to erase from this startup partition, the one I'm running Time Machine from. Even at root level, if I give myself permission to change permissions or delete a file, it'll say Operation not Permitted instead of Permission Denied. I have been able to delete this ".inProgress" package before when booting from the other partition, but with great difficulty. I have had much help from another Member in this Support Community when it comes to solving my Time Machine problems. I think I have found the problem (indexing files in my small OS X partition), as stated in my copy& pasted post above, but I really need to delete this inProgress package first to save space before continuing!

Now I'll have to fix the small partition? How's the best way to do this? There could be thousands of files that won't index fine.
See if there's anything you haven't done, that applies, in the pink box of #C3 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting
Otherwise, since most (or all?) of the indexing errors are in OSX, you might want to just reinstall it. Something may have gone wrong sometime, that damaged those files.
I reviewed #C3 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting and I have already done most of those things. I have just learned something new though:
When I included my Main OS X partition again, I got an indexing error for the first time for that partition. I might be interesting to note that the _spotlight process was running, and it's running again (the magnifying glass has a dot and it generically says "Indexing Tom's iMac"). mdworker, mds and backupd processes really are working hard, one moment they used over 500% of my CPU. It's nice to know for once quad core is good for something other than video encoding. (Now if they could just get the Finder to do more than 100.1%, only 1 thread is doing 100%, I'd like to see file size calculations 8 times quicker!)
I never got an indexing error once in the past 2 weeks for that large Mac OS X v10.7.2 main volume, and it had appeared to finish that partition backup before running into problems with my smaller test partition. Also, I had just updated the smaller test partition with a later build of Mac OS X. But It appears that the beta builds are clearly not the problem. I thought I could just restore again (from the December 4th backup) the small partition and both would be fine.
I'll finish reviewing all the suggestions on Time Machine - Troubleshooting and go from there. Hopefully, the _spotlight indexing simutaniously was the only problem. It's strange that the indexing hasn't happened since the original restore last week untill I finally got a good clean complete partial Time Machine backup. Why would the first Time Machine backup trigger indexing again?
For now, I'm going to exclude the Main Partition again, and let another good backup run. And try your suggestions. (And wait till mds, mdworker, etc. to finish!)
I have the logs of the first two sucsessful backups and the last two failed backups from the last 3 hours, if that would help.?

Permission Errors: Mtn Lion upgrade from SL iphoto, iTunes, etc; want to save myself and reinstall, Permission Errors: Mtn Lion upgrade from SL iphoto, iTunes, etc; want to save myself and reinstall

Well here I am again, once again lots of problems with t he upgrade to ML from SL on my late 2009 iMac.
Background: I took my perfectly fine functioning iMac into the Apple Store to have the Seagate HD replaced pert the recall. BIG MISTAKE. The Geniuses gave me a "complimentary" upgrade to ML without asking if that was okay, and three months later, I still do not have a functioning iMac.
My iMac since this reintallation has been unable to open ANY iphoto files/photos saved whie I was still running SL--pretty much everything I've saved as a jpeg for the last six years, so I'm not willing to let this go so easily. Not only have I got work-related files on here that I need, all of my children's and family photos are saved on there. I need those files.
After trying to no avail to reinstall SL from disk, the Apple Tech from Apple Care said that I've got hardware problems (fans wont' stop running; SL disk cannot be read by either Super Drive--the one inside the iMac or the external portable Super Drive, hence reinstallation of SL has not been possible), so I'm supposed to take it BACK into the Apple Store and let them work on it again. Please understand that for the last three months I have been dealing with nonstop issues that have created a real mess of my life and nothing gets fixed, no matter how many phone calls I make. I do not think any of this is hardware-related, honestly. I've found numerous threads on the fan running constantly with the installation of ML; and no, I'm not even running any CPU-instensive programs. And nothing explains why when the SL disk (a second copy of which was mailed to me) cannot be opened (the progress wheel just keeps spinning and spinning).
Well, I've decided that I'm probably going to have to give up on this, and that my previously working iMac that should have had more life in it is destined for the landfill (or recycling). All I want now is to get my data off of it and be able to use it with my external hard drive with another Mac (MBA now running Lion--although it's also got lots of problems) and a new Windows machines which I will mostly likely be buying this week. I can no longer live with the interruptions to my life--I work with my computers, need my data, and this has been going for three months.
I read a bunch of really complicated information on how to get my old data off of my Mac and/or external hard drive, and I've accepted that this is going to take a LOT of time, but I do't have a choice if I want my data.
I'm now looking at the contents of my external hard drive, and looking specifically at one of the user accounts (one that I use for work purposes) and I see that I am not allowed to view the contents of the "Pictures" because I do not have permission. This has been an ongoing issue while using the MBA to TRY to view/access data from the iMac. Is there anyone who can help me figure out how to repair all of these permission errors?
I've lost an unbelievable amount of time with all of this and I only want MY OWN files. I'm not trying to pirate any software, I just want and need my own iPhoto images and of course, since I own the music in my iTunes library, I think I ought to have permission to take this data off of this external hard drive and put it onto another external hard drive that I will buy tomorrow, so that I can reinstall onto another machine (ie, probably a new WIndows computer).
To paraphrase:
Upgrade to ML made most of my files saved on my iMac with SL obsolete or not viewable or accessbile. I NEED these files (mostly jpegs, iTunes music, some pages docs, etc, but I'll live without those docs if need be).
I have the last backup that was done before taking the iMac in to have the hard drive replaced. I can see that the data is there, but in one of the user accounts, the one I use mostly for work related purposes, the error message that tells me I cannot view the files because I do not have permission comes up. I've never had any other admins of my computers, either the iMac or the MBA that I am trying to use to open the files on the external hard drive. How would I repair the permissions on a backup of my old SL system from a MBA running Lion?
Anyone? Please help. I'm going to lose a whole heck of a lot of data and money if I cannot get these saved files back.

Dropbox Permission Error

My iPhone 4 now cannot sync with my windows vista computer. "Storing home folder on a network share can also cause an error. This computer is stand alone and not on a network unless dropbox.com and sharing files with invited friends constitutes
a "network".
Dropbox Permission Error - I checked the Temp file and all users allowed full control. I couldn't edit as "full control" was already marked. Checked inheritable permissions as well. Running

10.5.8 Update Provokes An Onslaught of Permission Errors :(

Is Apple going to offer a fix for this apparently defective update?
On a brand New Macbook Pro 17"( just after booting up for the very first time) I ran disk utility and did a routine verify of permissions which resulted with no errors displayed. (Passed with flying colors). I soon after was greeted by "Live Update 10.5.8" - "Recommended for All Users". I naively did the install and consequently, upon running Disk Utility proceeded to "Verify", when much to my surprise, a laundry list of "Errors" began to por down my screen. I next did "Repair Permissions" but these errors persisted. I since tried independently downloading and installing "Combo Update" twice in a row followed by a "Verify" (without doing a "Repair"). The Permission Errors continue to cascade,however, this Did resolve initial Warnings encountered as follows:
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DiskManagement.framework/Versions/A/Resources /DiskManagementTool" has been modified and will not be repaired.
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DesktopServicesPriv.framework/Versions/A/Reso urces/Locum" has been modified and will not be repaired.
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/Extensions/webdavfs.kext/Contents/Resources/loadwebdav" has been modified and will not be repaired.
Warning: SUID file "usr/sbin/pppd" has been modified and will not be repaired.
Warning: SUID file "usr/sbin/vpnd" has been modified and will not be repaired..
Presently, I am still plagued with "Permission Errors" and I did run "Repair" out of frustration and desperation to no avail. I have since read and been advised I should "Ignore" the errors, although they are "Valid"?
Why do I have "Errors" on my brand new computer I ask.
I don't understand how this can possibly be acceptable to Apples standards and dismissed as Valid yet fine to ignore.
How does one determine in the future which "Errors" are "False Positives"and are they really? How do I know the health of my system? I have honestly been conditioned to rely upon Disk Utility- Verify, Repair. How can I feel confidence in future "Recommended Updates"? I am neither a software engineer, nor a technical expert but I do in all honesty have a business to run. I honestly don't know if this unit is reliable in it's present state. Am I going to be plagued and riddled with these errors for the life of this laptop?
I am genuinely trying to get a handle on this and confess to having lost hours of sleep over it. Hopefully, someone from Apple is working on resolving this for us. Right now I hesitate to even turn it on at this point. I've gone back to using my G4! So for now My Macbook Pro is sitting on my desk looking like an expensive paperweight.
Thanks for any solution, expertise or reassurance anyone may be able to offer.
Lastly resorted to "Repair" and this is the result.

Sorry you are as well in the same boat! I confess I would prefer not to have to live with it.
AFAIK, everybody has to live with these messages, but they are not actually errors in the permissions of the indicated files & as Apple says should not generally be a cause for concern. For example, all those that start with the letter el in the first position of the permissions string (like "they are lrw-rw-r-- ") are just indicating that the +file type+ of the file is a symbolic link -- the file type is not actually a permission & should not be changed by the repair, which would cause the file not to be recognized as a link & cause a legitimate operational error!

File permission error; NI-488: DMA hardware error detected

I'm running LabVIEW 8.0 on the latest supported SUSE linux. My vi saves a data file. If I save a file named "/home/bill/LabVIEW/data/file.dat," it saves okay the first time. But then if I run the program again, it gives me an error instead of just writing over file.dat (which is what I want it to do).
Error 8 occurred at Open/Create/Replace File in filename.vi
Possible reason(s):
LabVIEW: File permission error.
NI-488: DMA hardware error detected.
Also, I don't know if this is related, but when I click on the folder icon to the right of the file path on the front panel, and navigate to the directory mentioned above, then type "file.dat," I get the message "/home/bill/LabVIEW/data/file.dat does not exist." Shouldn't this *create* the new file?
Thanks,
Bill

You should really start your own thread describing your problem in detail. One of the issues here is that there are two possible sources for the error code 8. Which one is applicable to you? What platform are you on? What version of LV? What are you trying to accomplish? What exactly triggers the error?
Please start again with your own thread and with the answers the questions I asked (as well as anything else that you think might be of value).

Java update 6 causing constant permission errors

Hi Folks
I was looking for a little more experienced thoughts about the numerous persistent permission errors caused by the last java update for apple's software update. I've read forum articles that says it's OK to ignore them. And the Apple Support KB page that list the dozens of errors that can be safely ignored. But it just doesn't feel right. I'm tempted to revert to a pre java update backup version of the OS, that repair permissions gave a clean bill of health to it's screen. My question is; By not updating java Do I have more risk than by running with all the constant errors caused this update in file permissions? In trying to learn more about java I found among other things these snippets from Boutell.Com
However, most people do not have Java applications on their computers these days, and most websites useFlash instead of Java for the interactive features that used to be commonly written in Java.
Removing Java on MacOS X
Removing Java on MacOS X is not recommended as Apple has made Java a standard part of the operating system and may rely on it to a greater degree than a typical Windows system.
What you should NOT do
Either update Java, or remove it. Do not refuse the updates. That gives you the worst of all possible worlds: a buggy old version of Java that might be exploited by
maliciously coded web pages.
Just wondering what others thought about this. And just how useful is java these days? Is it true Java has been dropped from OS 10.7? Hopefully, Flash is on the way out too.
Well thanks for considering this.

I don't see those errors, but Disk Utility cannot fix anything related to symbolic links, so all I can recommend is to ignore them. Your other option is to reinstall the OS and then run Software Update, after making a bootable backup/clone.

Using Photoshop CC I cannot save images to folder from Camera Raw as Tif. I get message 'write permission error'. I am using Widows 7 Professional.

I have just changed to Photoshop CC from CS4 and cannot now save images from Camera Raw. I get message 'write permission error'. I assume there is some permissions setting which did not exist with CS4.
I cannot progress unless I revert to CS4. What am I failing to do?

See if the suggestions, here, help, although this was back with CS6-cloud, not CC, so may not apply 100%:

I'd suggest that rather than deleting the file, you move it out of the folder to somewhere else, in case things get worse and you need to put it back.
I found this by Googling the error message.
If you can't figure it out, you might post in the "Downloading, Installing and Set Up" or "Adobe Creative Cloud" forums since it seems to be related to the Cloud updates, and not necessarily ACR plug-in functionality, and I've seen India support people actually tackle problems posted there, which rarely happens in the ACR forum, although an ACR engineer may sometimes pop in to answer questions, they'd be less likely to know how to fix deployment issues.
