[Solved] Messed up Nokia6280s usr-permissions by mounting

//edit: Problem "solved": Yesterday evening, after I made this post, I met my girlfriend and she told me that it works again, so the problem ended in smoke, no idea how and why...
Hm, title est omen: A few days ago, I mounted the Nokia 6280 cellphone of my girlfriend as "standard usb-stogare disk" (chose that in the Nokia menu that comes up when the phone detects a usb connection) without any problems.
But since I did that, it's not possible to play the videos we made beforehand on the phone. It's also not possible to make new videos or voice recordings. However one can take new pictures or rename any file on the smart-media-card.
I'm not too good in this mobile stuff and don't know if this phone is running symbian os or someth else, it's not a Windows OS, that's all I can say (at least it doesn't look like it was). So I don't know if this OS knows user permissions, as well as I can't remember if I did execute something like "chown -R * jakob:users" on the mounted dir to gain read-access or not.
My simple question is: Is it generally possible that I fscked something up by mounting the phone on my Arch box?.
After we plugged the phone to my Arch Box we also went to another (Windows) PC to try out the Nokia-Phone-Software, where we copied one or two mp3's on the phone. But since that was with the original software it should not be the source of our problem, I hope.
Maybe anyone here got this handy cellphone, too and knows what I am talking about (storage seems not to be the problem: 27 MB unused on the mini-SD-card) and may help us
Thanks,

First of all thanks for the reply.
The old image is gone, I thought I backed everything up (I saw the permissions afterwards). At the moment I reinstalled mysql, it is working. Apache needed some folders to be created in /var, I made them and is working now.
For everything else I'm chmoding by hand, I'm almost finishing this and hopefully it will be ok
Reinstalling arch would be a viable option but the installer-cd (2011.08) has serious issues installing on a GPT disk and since I managed to do it I prefer to avoid doing it again unless absolutely necessary.
The good thing is that now /home and /srv are safe (my old disk was really old) and in their own partitions so any system changes, if they happen, won't be doing them any damage!

    I have tired to mount a vista and 7 WIM to add a service pack, but I keep getting the error "you do not have permissions to mount and modify this image"
    I'm running as administrator I'm running from the waik, I was able to mount with readonly permissions but that not what I need.

    Thanks Juboori, this solved the issue for me too.
    The odd thing though is that the "Read Only" attribute was NOT ticked in the Right-Click Properties windows but it WAS enabled when checking via a DOS command prompt.
    How to check in DOS:
    "Attrib Install.wim" (you'll see the 'R' attribute is enabled)
    How to disable in DOS
    "Attrib Install.wim -R" (Removes the 'Read Only' attribute)

    Hi,
    To hide/disable controls based on user group in an InfoPath form, a solution is that we can call User Profile Service to check the group of current user, then hide/disable
    specific controls by setting some rules in form.
    Here is a demo with steps in details would be helpful to you:

  • [SOLVED] setting up permissions for mounted usb devices

    Hi all,
    I've been having the following problem when mounting my external hd: in order to mount the external hd I created a folder /mnt/usbstick/ giving permissions to a non-root user to read the files/directories in this folder (using chmod); however, after I mount the external hd, the set of permissions for /mnt/usbstick/ change so that a non-root user cannot  read the mounted files in /mnt/usbstick. This is a problem for me because, when I copy a file from the external hd to the non-root home folder, the copied file can only be read by the root user.   
    Do you know how I can solve this problem? Should I write a udev rule and place it at /etc/udev/rules.d/? Or should I simply add the non-root user to a specific group from /etc/group? Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    You could try adding an entry for your usb device in /etc/fstab and specify the option user to let non-superusers mount it.
    Here's an example of an entry for my external HD. I'm sure there are probably other (and better) ways to do this but it works for me.
    UUID=4376-0BFB /media/FIRELITE vfat rw,user,noauto,async 0 0
    Nice howto found on the wiki: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fstab

  • [solved] changed owner of /usr /etc /var folders ..

    Hello There !
    I messed up, as being the root user,
    did a
    chown -R root /usr /var /etc
    I'm using KDE 4.2, and I bet I messed up with the system.

    If not, maybe reinstalling xorg-server would set the right permissions again.

  • [solved] findutils - problem with file permissions

    Hey,
    I tried running makepkg -c for an updated PKGBUILD of a package I maintain in the AUR (gretl), and it seemed fine but then hit:
    ==> Tidying install...
    -> Purging other files...
    -> Compressing man and info pages...
    -> Stripping debugging symbols from binaries and libraries...
    -> Removing libtool .la files...
    -> Removing empty directories...
    find: invalid predicate `-delete'
    I'd had some other strange errors with find over the past few weeks or so (my last -Syu was after this month's catalyst driver came out with support for the current kernel) but had shrugged them off. This error made me decide to try reinstalling findutils, and it gave the error:
    error: cannot remove file 'usr/bin/find': Operation not permitted
    a bit stupidly, I tried pacman -Rd then -S findutils, and now I get
    error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
    findutils: /usr/bin/find exists in filesystem
    Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
    missing dependency for ca-certificates : findutils
    missing dependency for initscripts : findutils
    missing dependency for mkinitcpio : findutils
    missing dependency for texinfo : findutils
    ls -als /usr/bin | grep find     gives:
    12 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 10636 Mar 25 16:24 deepfind
    64 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 59200 May 9 01:58 efinder
    64 -rwxr-xr-x 1 500 500 59536 Jun 16 14:49 find
    and rm, mv, chmod, chown etc on /usr/bin/find as root, and from livecd, all also come back with "Operation not permitted".
    find seems to work fine for a few simple uses I've just tried.. but the last time I ran makepkg -c without the error was before the last system upgrade, so I'm guessing find didn't upgrade properly then due to whatever is wrong with the permissions, leading to the other errors.
    Anyway, I guess the question is, can I do anything to get rid of /usr/bin/find and reinstall findutils? don't mind so much about missing dependencies as I tend not to upgrade that often, but find not doing what it should is a bit of a pain.

    mm I tried all that, and no luck. though trying adduser 500 did give me a helpful reminder that usernames can't start with numbers...
    anyway, it's not a huge deal atm, and I can always clean reinstall the / partition if things really break. Thanks all the same.
    PS:
    huh, just had a thought - I remember how I used to get annoyed how mounting partitions using ext2ifs in windows didn't respect permissions properly. and now I almost wish I had a windows partition / that this wasn't a laptop hard drive...

  • [SOLVED] Problem with privileges (nm-applet and mounting devices)

    Hi,
    I have a little problem after a system update made a few weeks ago. (At least I think it started after that update, but I am not sure.)
    It's something related to lack of privileges or sth...
    When I right-click on nm-applet icon some options are greyd out as well as when I try to add a new network - everything in the dialog is grey. But when I "sudo nm-applet", everything works.
    And the next problem is: When I plug my USB stick/drive to NB it is not mounted automatically but I need to open nautilus, mount it manually and an "Authenticate" dialog shows up and my password is required. But why? It didn't use to work that way. I don't understant what might have changed.
    I use SLiM starting my gnome-session.
    My ~/.xinitrc:
    exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch gnome-session
    My /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome-fallback.session
    RequiredComponents=gnome-settings-daemon;
    RequiredProviders=windowmanager;
    DefaultProvider-windowmanager=compiz
    DefaultProvider-notifications=notify-osd
    DefaultProvider-displaymanager=slim
    (I don't use gnome-shell nor gnome-panel, but Gnome with xfce4-panel )
    Thank you in advance.

    Thank you, headkase, you were right about it! Removing "ck-launch-session" solved my problems. I also removed "dbus-launch" because I didn't have it there originally, I had added "dbus-launch" to exec line just today as I had read somewhere that it might help (it didn't)...
    So, I'm going with "exec gnome-session" and everything works, thanks.

  • [SOLVED] Freezing while executing /usr/bin/openbox from Openbox menu

    I'm following the instructions in this webpage to create a dynamic menu. I have successfully achieved this on my laptop by installing the openbox-menu package and typing the following lines in menu.xml:
    <menu id="desktop-app-menu" label="Applications" execute="/usr/bin/openbox-menu lxde-applications.menu" />
    For some reason, the same doesn't work on my desktop PC. After editing and saving the menu.xml file, I restart Openbox and when I right click the desktop and hover the "Applications" menu item the desktop freezes. However, I can still move the mouse and switch to other ttys with Ctrl+Alt+Fx, therefore I believe it's reasonable to suggest that the problem lies in the permissions.
    What should I do about it?
    Last edited by Martificiam (2013-02-03 11:29:21)

    Umm, that's not "some random" webpage at all... It worked on all of my Arch Linux installations. The "lxde-applications.menu" is just an argument. But thanks for the link, I'll look into it.
    It's just that it's more of a workaround, not a solution, really... since it has ALWAYS worked for me.
    Furthermore, while setting up Arch on my laptop I remember experiencing similar problems (running a particular program from the openbox menu and resulting in a desktop freeze). This must have something to do with permissions.
    Edit: the xdg_menu worked perfectly, but I would still prefer to use the openbox-menu. I'm marking this as solved anyway.

    It seems your sync database got messed up somehow, especially based on your other post with issues doing a pacman -Syu. I suspect the advice to run pacman -Syy (or yaourt -Syy) should fix this problem as well.

  • [Solved] Auto-open a file manager after mounting with udev rules

    Hellooooo,
    I followed the udev Wiki for auto mounting USBs and it now works great.
    The only problem is: how can I automatically open a file manager of the mounted directory? I tried putting this at the end of the "ACTION=="add"," section in "/etc/udev/rules.d/11-media-by-label-auto-mount.rules" but for some reason nothing happens:
    , RUN+="/usr/bin/dolphin /media/%E{dir_name}"
    Even if I just try to open dolphin with the "ACTION=="add"," section nothing happens either way.
    So what am I doing wrong?

    In that case, the best choice in my opinion is to use Automounting UDisks Wrappers :
    devmon is a script developed by IgnorantGuru. He left Arch Linux, but the package in AUR is still there and is the last version. For a future new release, it should be available at his blog site. The script is distro independent.
    My udisksvm script, in its default state, doesn't launch a file manager after automounting, but it is not a big thing to let the automounting be done and then manually open a file manager (a new entry in the traydevice right-click menu can also be added for that).
    If you can do without automounting, there is also the bashmount script from jnguyen.
    All these scripts don't require writing any udev rules, they use udisks instead.
    I hope you could find something you like and which will suit your wishes.

  • [SOLVED] When archiso build.sh script, the mount for airootfs.img fail

    Solved, you can see the details down in this post https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 6#p1481476. Basically I rebooted.
    VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV
    As the subject states, when running ./build.sh there is a mount: work/mnt/airootfs: mount failed: Unknown error -1
    looking through the script I think the command that is being ran is
    mount /home/pingbuild/archlive/baseline/work/airootfs.img /home/pingbuild/archlive/baseline/work/mnt/airootfs
    The mnt/airootfs directory does exist. I guess normally the directory is removed, but I am assuming the scripts stop with the error. Anyway if I run the command by hand I get the same error.
    Is the airootfs.img not being created correctly?
    Here is a snapshot of the std out. I could not get std err to go to curl/spurgen, so the actual error did not upload. I will paste by hand so you can see where it would have been.

    does this works?
    Gives me the same results. Also I tried overwriting the vfat with etx4, same thing. This confused me. I know I have made rootfs before.
    Let me step out and set the stage a bit.
    This is a question I posted on stackoverflow http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2693 … re-adj-lib One suggestion was archiso. So I started with baseline and was trying to build my 'hello world' iso. Once that is done I will then try port the P.I.N.G scripts to that ISO. Maybe event create it as a package that archiso will then just merged in. Once I get to that point building new iso should be a breeze. Actually, I use the tool as a pxe boot, but until I get the 'hello world' iso working, I can't trust the boot. So I have a script I wrote to build my rootfs once I get the process working and I know it ran once. So I rebooted and all is good.
    FYI here is my script.
    #!/bin/bash
    PINGHOME="/home/Ping"
    AIROOTFS="/home/pingbuild/archlive/baseline/work/airootfs"
    PINGROOTFS="${PINGHOME}/rootfs"
    if [ "$1" == "init" ]
    then
    rm -r ${PINGROOTFS}
    cp -av "${AIROOTFS}/" "${PINGROOTFS}/"
    fi
    rm -r ${PINGROOTFS}/Braums
    cp -av ${PINGHOME}/Braums/ ${PINGROOTFS}/Braums/
    dd if=/dev/zero of=initrd bs=1M count=60
    mkfs -t ext4 -F initrd
    mount -o loop initrd /mnt/PingFS
    #rsync -rpltDzv --delete --progress ${PINGROOTFS}/ /mnt/PingFS/
    umount /mnt/PingFS
    Stepping back in..... When I ran my script I was getting the same errors. Ok, this can't be so I rebooted, ran my script, and it worked. I ran the lsmod and the loop was there.
    So tried './build.sh' and it is coping work/airootfs/ to work/mnt/airrootfs.
    Not sure why or how it got there since my system is rather new (mid nov 2014) but after a reboot, it does look like systemd 217-8 will insert the loop without forcing a modprobe. That is probably why I did not see it in the wiki.
    So back to draining the swamp. If the ISO works and I sure it will then I am back to trying to get pxe boot to work, then integrating the P.I.N.G scripts into the new rootfs. But that maybe another post. :-)

  • Multiple user use of TC: permissions and mounting

    I have an iMac (intel, OSX10.6.7) and Time Capsule [TC]. I have set up Time Machine to use the TC. I also use the TC for additional storage - Photos and Music - to keep the iMac drive fairly free. There are 5 users of this setup (2 Admin). The TC is also accessed from windows machines and so I can not use a sparse bundle for this.
    When one person is logged in and the TC drive is "Mounted" for that user, all hunky dory. On the one hand the Time Machine is able to mount, connect backup, and disconnect it's sparse bundle with no issues no matter who is logged in. If another user (admin or not) tries to access the TC drive (not Time Machine) they can not get at the contents, it is marked with a No Entry sign on the Folder Icon.
    How oh How oh How can I get the Time Capsule (External Drive) mounted so that all the users can access it without a previous user having to disconnect? Also how can I get it to keep the permissions I set (to inherit) rather than permanently reverting to owner:RW, others:read-only after someone had updated a file?

    The remainder of the disk is free and available from Finder, but has to be mounted and then unmounted if a different user wants to use it.
    Yes, but as the item I referenced explains, using that free space for something else isn't recommended.  You might look into attaching a USB external drive to that Time Capsule.
    Another part of the problem you're having might be due to the fact that the applications that use the files you're trying to share aren't designed to allow more than one user to open the files at a time.
    This article might describe some options, at least for iTunes.

The crash sucesed then the latest update.
    Already tried several alternatives (install pangox-compat, reinstall pango, etc.) and no luck.

  • [~SOLVED] 1 min hang during boot while mounting xfs partitions (LVM)

    Hi all,
    After the upgrade I did yesterday (which included linux-3.12.8-1 and lvm2), the boot time has increased by 1 minute as the system hangs while mounting two partitions formatted as xfs and residing on logical volumes.
    $ systemd-analyze blame
    1min 13.676s home-VDP76-videos.mount
    1min 13.111s home-VDP76-VBox_VMs.mount
    2.980s [email protected]
    I have the fsck hook as second-to-last entry in my mkinitcpio.conf, but the fstab entries for these partitions include
    ... xfs defaults 0 0
    so, as far as I undertstand, the partitions should not be checked, am I missing something!?
    I have googled for similar issues but I did not find anything useful, any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    edit: I blame the check disk because of what reported on the system journal (note the time stamps):

    I should also add that the involved partitions are ~20 Gb each and quite full...
    edit2: I have freed up almost all space on the video partition and the time for mounting those partitions has now decreased to 8 sec...I will mark the thread as solved, but I still would appreciate an input on the reasons why the partitions are checked regardless of the fstab setting, for example, is this pertinent!?

    exactly..in fact the man page says

    so fsck.xfs simply exits with a zero exit status.
    running xfs_check gives
    xfs_check is deprecated and scheduled for removal in June 2014.
    Please use xfs_repair -n <dev> instead.
    and xfs_repair does not find errors on both partitions.
    Still, I do not understand how nothing being done can take up so much time.
    By the way, a short S.M.A.R.T. self-test did not report errors...
    In the meanwhile, there has been another kernel upgrade and the timing issue persists, so I am assuming it has something to do with the last lvm2 upgrade.
