"Permissions differ on usr/share/derby"

Hi,
After some strange behavior on my MacPro I verified disk permissions and got:
Permissions differ on "usr/share/derby" should be drwxr-xr-x, they are lrwxr-xr-x
and
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
Repair disk permissions does not fix the problem.
Any advice aside from reinstalling Snow Leopard?
Thank you.

The “l” in lrwxr-xr-x stands for “link” and just means that the corresponding file is an alias file, whereas “d” in drwxr-xr-x stands for “directory” and means it's a folder. In Mac OS X 10.6.3, the /usr/share/derby file is an alias to the /usr/share/java/derby-10.5.1.1 folder, however both actually have the same read/write permissions (rwxr-xr-x).

  • "Permissions Differ on "usr/lib/ruby" ?!

    I'm using Leopard. After a recent startup problem with a Macbook I ran Disk Utilities, Verify Disk Permissions, and got the following message:
    "Permissions differ on "usr/lib/ruby", should be lrwxr-xr-x, they are drwxr-xr-x."
    1) What does this mean?
    2) Is it a serious security issue (i.e. malware)?
    3) What do I do about it?
    Thanks

    "If you use the menu item "Go" and select the "Go to folder..." option, you can type in:
    /usr/lib
    and check to see if ruby is an alias or an actual folder. It should appear as an alias in the Finder,"
    ============================================================================
    Ok, did that so I'll give you an long list of stuff I found, if you have the patience to go through it all.
    Finder > Go > Go to folder > /usr/lib. There are 4 Ruby aliases (with arrow symbol) there: "libruby.1.dylib" , "libsvnswigruby-1.dylib" , "libsvnswigruby-1.0.dylib" and "libsvnswigruby-1.0.0.0.dylib".
    AND, yes, there is also an ACTUAL RUBY FOLDER (blue, no arrow) in usr/lib.
    This Ruby folder breaks down into the following subfolders: (Finder>Library>)Ruby Folder (blue)> site_ruby > 1.8 > osx and powerpc-darwin 8.0 (two folders). In this "osx" folder there are 9 .rb files called active_record.rb, addressbook.rb, appkit.rb, cocoa.rb, coredate.rb, foundation.rb, NMOSXDockHelper.rb, qtkit.rb and webkit.rb. In the powerpc-darwin8.0 folder is a rubycocoa.bundle icon (like a lego brick).
    The followinig actual folders (blue, no arrow)) are also present in usr/lib: dtrace, groff, java, mecab, openmpi, pam, php, pkgconfig, podcastproducer, sa, samba, sas12, sqlite3, system, and zsh.
    =================================================================
    "and the original folder is supposed to be in
    "/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby"
    You might also check that location to see if the ruby folder is there."
    ==============================================================================
    Yes, it's also in this location. There are 2 main Ruby folders (blue, nop arrow) in System/ Library/Frameworks: one called 'RubyCocoa.framework', the other Ruby.framework. Ruby.framework > 1.8 > usr > (here there are three more folders 'bin' , 'lib' and 'share') lib > ruby. Here, in this ruby folder are aliases (site_ruby' and 'user_gems' as well as actual folders called 'gems' and 1.8. In 1.8 there are further subfolders named bigdecimal, cgi, date, digest and such which are NOT in the Ruby folder in usr/lib.
    ============================================================================
    I have no idea whether anything in the Mac OS actually uses ruby stuff or not. Ruby is a programming language, and Ruby on Rails is used in web development.

    By the way, I performed the Safari 3.1 update, Garageband Update 4.1.2 , iPhoto Update 7.1.2 , and Airport Utility 5.3.1 update two days before this all happened. I rebooted after the updates were fully installed, used the macbook (starting and rebooting 2 or 3 times duringthe course of the day, after which everything seemed fine). Two days later when I tried to start the Macbook I got a very long blue screen (in excess of 7-8 minutes) and had to try starting several times before I could log on. Then I ran the disk utility and got the Ruby permissions message. I've performed all the disk repair stuff and the message remains.
    I searched the Internet and could find no other examples of this happening. So, questions remain:
    1. Is there ANY possible way this could be malware, spyware, etc.?
    2. Any ideas as to how this change could have happened on my system?
    Thanks!

    This is one way and i hope it helps you and the other devs. But what do you think about that the systems can repair this by itselfs? On my opensuse server i have a tool named chkstat which runs as a cronjob and set the file permissions as loaded from a file.
    Source: http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/distrib … 11.src.rpm
    manpage: http://www.trinler.de/de/linux/man.html?command=chkstat
    The advantage from my side is that one or a group of devs define the file permissions standard for arch linux and everyone can choose to use it or to append own more or less secure/paranoid settings. Another sideeffect is that every dev can take a look inside this config file to see what permission the own PKGBUILD need so that in the best case we will not see such messages in the future. The source includes config files so there is no need to restyle this all from zero.

  • Default permissions on /usr/share/ and its subdirectories?

    I think I've goofed up my permissions on /usr/share and its subdirectories? Can someone tell me the default permissions, please?
    Also, is there a place in the docs where default permissions on various directories are listed?
    Thanks.

    (Pretty much) all directories are 755 and files are 644.
    These files are executable too if it helps (if you can't reinstall your packages via cache):

  • GDM update: directory permissions differ on /var/log/gdm/

    Hello,
    Running Arch 64Bits kernel 3.9.9-1 with systemd and i got the following warning during a gdm update today:
    (1/6) upgrading libgdm [######################] 100%
    (2/6) upgrading gdm [######################] 100%
    warning: directory permissions differ on /var/log/gdm/
    filesystem: 711 package: 1770
    Why would gdm need some 1770 permissions for log files? Looks pretty suspicious to me, especially the sticky bit thing. What did i miss?
    PS: BTW the update is successful (it's a warning afterall, not an error)
    Thanks

    Looks like the opposite situation than 3 years ago:

    gdm is owned by gdm, so why would it needs 1770 permissions?
    EDIT3:
    After further research i appear the way gdm is installed may matter.
    Well i installed gdm through pacman and always update it with pacman as well. Never manually compiled/make_install'd it nor used abs for it.

  • Disk Utility - Disk Permissions Differ and Warnings?

    If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
    Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

  • Disk Permissions differ after a day

    Hi,
    Just in the past couple of days my computer has been running very slowly. It has been taking 15 minutes to log in, so I fire up Disk Utility, Verify permissions and there are a heap of differing permissions. I repair permissions and the machine runs fine. The next day the computer is back to being slow. I go through verifying permissions and there are a heap of differing permissions again.
    My Hard Drive is farily full, I have 2 partitions, the Macintosh HD partition is running at 7gb free and the extended partition has 32gb free. I don't know if a full disk would be causing these errors.
    Here is a log of the disk utility.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    I have no idea but repairing permissions or not would not likely have any impact on the computer's login time (do you actually mean login as in entering your username and password or do you simply mean boot time?)
    If your computer runs slow look for other possible causes such as incompatible third-party software you have installed or corrupted caches and/or preference files. See the following:
    Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. TechTool Pro provides additional repair options including file repair and recovery, system diagnostics, and disk defragmentation. TechTool Pro 4.5.1 or higher are Intel Mac compatible; Drive Genius is similar to TechTool Pro in terms of the various repair services provided. Versions 1.5.1 or later are Intel Mac compatible.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts had been significantly reduced in Tiger and Leopard.
    OS X automatically defrags files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems.
    I would also recommend downloading the shareware utility TinkerTool System that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old logfiles and archives, clearing caches, etc.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the commandline. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard.
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
    1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
    2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
    3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
    4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
    5. Carbon Copy Cloner (Donationware)
    6. SuperDuper! (Commercial)
    7. Intego Personal Backup (Commercial)
    8. Data Backup (Commercial)
    9. SilverKeeper 2.0 (Freeware)
    10. MimMac (Commercial)
    11. CloneTool Hatchery (Shareware)
    12. Clone X (Commercial)
    The following utilities can also be used for backup, but cannot create bootable clones:
    1. Backup (requires a .Mac account with Apple both to get the software and to use it.)
    2. Toast
    3. Impression
    4. arRSync
    Apple's Backup is a full backup tool capable of also backing up across multiple media such as CD/DVD. However, it cannot create bootable backups. It is primarily an "archiving" utility as are the other two.
    Impression and Toast are disk image based backups, only. Particularly useful if you need to backup to CD/DVD across multiple media.
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
    Additional suggestions will be found in Mac Maintenance Quick Assist.

    > I repair permissions using the Tiger disc upgrade.
    One thing to note...  When running Repair Disk Permissions, it is best to run it while started up normally, from your normal startup disk, not from a Mac OS X installation disc.  The only time you should run it while started up from an installation disc is if some problem is preventing you from starting up normally. OTOH, Repair Disk can only be used when starting up from a different disk (such as an installation disc).
    So, I would start up normally, run Disk Utility, and use Repair Disk Permissions on your normal startup disk.
    NOTE:  Repair Disk Permissions often gives alerts messages that can be ignored.  They are more "informational," not serious errors.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448
    You should still run it periodically.  When you run it, what needs to be repaired has been repaired; consider the rest of it an FYI.  I've never experience a problem, where a Repair Disk Permissions message actually caused a problem.  But, if you ever get an error while running Repair Disk (or Verify Disk), that is usually a serious problem.

  • Corrupted library points to /usr/share/emacs/...

    Advice on fixing a corrupted iTunes Library would be appreciated. The symptoms are invalid links to certain files, such as:
    file: "TED Sirena Huang"
    link: iBook/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/net/webjump.el
    file: AC: Ray Kurzweil
    link: iBook/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/obsolete/auto-show.el
    BTW, the URL of an Applescript that will find [or make a playlist of] all missing or invalid files would be appreciated. It is surely on dougscripts.com but I've not yet devisted the proper query.

    Has anyone seen this type of library corruption before? It is a bit scary to have iTunes linking into System files - where only permissions prevents a user from accidental deletions.

    Hi,
    Try these 3 solutions
    1. Did you start vncserver services as:
    service vncserver start
    2.Check that port 5901 has not been blocked by a firewall:
    # nc -vz localhost 5901
    You should get a connection and a termination. If you get an error, fix the firewall.
    3. service iptables stop
    Hope This Helps
    Regards,

  • Glibc - /usr/share/info/dir is already in the filesystem

    Hello,
    I just build glibc from abs with debugging support and when trying to install it via pacman I get conflicting files error:  "/usr/share/info/dir is already in the filesystem". Any ideas?

    /usr/share/info/dir makes part of the info documentation system. Packages must add entries to this file and not overwrite it, so your package need to be fixed. You can delete the dir file from the package (do not overwrite the system file or you will destroy the info system); you just won't have a title entry in the info page (the menu displayed when you type info will not have the entry corresponding to your package). You can also fix it properly with the install-info command (but I do not know this package, so I do not know exactly what you have to install).
    I suggest you to report the problem it in a comment in the AUR.

  • Permissions differ but don't seem to repair

    Hello,
    When I run verify permissions a long list of things pop up saying the permissions differ. But when I run repair permissions the same things pop up as differing permissions. I thought maybe it was just the computer telling me it was fixing the problem, but, out of curiosity, I ran verify permissions again. The same things popped up in the window. I've also got a problem with Safari, Mail, and iTunes hanging and when I try to force quit the application it won't actually force quit and the blue on light in the dock stays lit. I also noticed that one of the messages in verify permissions said something about iTunes. Could these two things possibly be connected. I was just about to run an archive install because I read in a thread that this would fix the latter problem of applications not quitting. But I also keep reading about verifying permissions before doing that, and I don't think I've had a successful verify and repair yet. Any and every piece of help is appreciated
    Edit-now it's saying that one thing is irreparable. Answers?

    HI,
    The permissions issues and Safari/Mail and iTunes issues are NOT related.
    First. You can safely ignore the messages when you repair disk permissions. They are a result of recent software updates. As long as you see these words at the bottom of the window;
    Permissions repair complete, you have nothing to worry about.
    Now, applications that freeze or crash and you can't quit.. that's different. Might be an underlying problem. Boot from your install disk and check the hard disk for errors.
    *"and I don't think I've had a successful verify and repair yet."*
    Do you mean you've run Disk Utility and it's reported errors and they aren't repaired? Here's how to do that.
    Insert the installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    *(Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)*
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
    Select your start up disk and click Restart
    Check to see how much free disk space there is. Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 10% to 15% free disk space at all times.
