User permission problem, OSX 10.6 & 10.3.9

We have a small network with an old G3 server (non-Intel even) running 10.3.9. We had 3 Mac minis with 10.3.9, but just upgraded to new minis with 10.6.3. The files saved to the server now get their permissions messed up. They get saved to the server with Read-only. Or the system tells me that the "disk is full or may be read-only, you can't save this file". This may be due to the fact that the server was set up with a user called "share". There is also a group called "share" on the server. They both have the same User ID no., 502. We all sign on to the server as "share". When a new file is saved, and you go to the server and look at File/Info, it shows the User share having Read/Write but the Group share having Read-Only. Sometimes they show up as user "nobody". I've read that the permission systems are different on the two operating systems. My question is, can I simply delete the group, "share" on the server, and fix the problem? I don't have experience using Terminal, except I saw the ID command in a post and tried it.

Hey
Sorry should of put that above, I tried logging the user in to a bind machine which I tested with another account and it worked fine, also tried for file share and still nothing login screen just bounces every time but worked with another account, groups for the account where identical
Hope that helps
Thanks
Joe

So I created another account and it works fine there. Compared permissions between the two accounts and they appear identical. Looks like it can't create the .tarantella directory in my home directory. Did have some home directory permission problems a couple weeks ago and used the utility on the Mac OSX install disk to reset home directory permissions and ACLs.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

I probably should have included more of the java console output. This is output after what appears to be certificate checking:

Back End Permission Problem

Hi everyone,
We encounter permission problems with our Visual Composer Applications.
We have created three applications using the visual composer and accessing a BI-system as backend
But the developer has super_user permissions and we dont want our endusers to have them.
Therefor we created new roles only with the permission to see that specific report.
But now, the users are not allwoed to see the data.
The error says, that I should ckeck the permissions.
Well, I did. The user can execute the queries I used directly with BEx - no problem, but within the VC-application not.
So I assume the problem are permissions in the portal.
If I give the user super_user permissions it works, but thats not what I want.
I want the user having minimal permissions in the portal.
Is there somebody who can help me?
Sincerely
Mark

Hi
Your problem looks like portal authorization issue. There is separate role for 'End Users' to execute & view the portal iview. Just check with your EP administrator, he will solve the problem. There will be role like -
*VC_Role.
*eu_Role.

Permission problems after upgrade to 10.5 on early Power PC G5 Tower

Permissions problems after upgrading to 10.5 on a client power PC (early) G5 tower.
Problems include folders that are created on XServe via this client do not allow any one else including this client to access. All other clients running 10.5, which happen to be newer Intel machines do not have this problem. Repairing permissions, updating to 10.5.1, try to manually correct permissions have all failed to repair the situation. All clients log onto the XServe with the same user/password. This client has since been downgraded back to 10.4.9 and has no issues.
The Xserve runs 10.3.9, any help would be greatly appreciated.
We have read through the forums regarding permission problems after upgrading and even tried some tips found here.

You really should check things out first before speaking.
Here are the requirements for 10.5;
Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard requires:
A Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or Power PC G4 (867 MHz or faster) processor
512 MB memory or more
A DVD drive for installation
9 GB of available disk space or more
Some features require a compatible Internet service provider, fees may apply.
Some features require Apple's MobileMe service; fees apply.

Disk Problems, OSX partition will not repair is Windows CHKDSK the culprit?

Hi,
I have both Snow Leopard (fully updated) and Windows 7 on Bootcamp partition on my MacBook Pro.
Repairing Permissions on my Mac OS 10.6.4 partition had become a very regular with 'Java' permission problems always seeming to be a very regular and common one.
Anyhow, I thought it appropriate and logical to run the WIndows 7 equivalent of disk-verify/disk-repair/permission-repair and therefore run CHKDSK at 'CMD' level and this appeared to run accordingly without problems.
At some point/days later, my Mac OS appeared to be slow and having a lot of spinny-ball, therefore verified Macintosh HD volume-disk with Disk Utility and showed to have lots of problem. Disk Utility Repair has failed having tried it many times and not even Drive Genius 3 is able to repair or rebuild it on this occasion however I was able to run a 'Scan' on it from Drive Genius 3 and it reported thankfully that there was NO bad blocks.
The error thats returned repeatedly when doing a repair is "Incorrect number of thread records" which is reported immediately after "Checking Catalog File"
Not keen on the thought of having to format, re-install and then re-setup the system even from a Super-Duper backup copy that I had made previously (minus some data since).
However, my questions are:
1. Is it possible that the Windows 7 'CHKDSK' command may have possibly caused this despite the fact that it would have or should have only performed it's operations on the BOOTCAMP disk partition?
2. Is it possible to reformat and restore any previously backed-up images to a single disk partition _without upsetting the other Partition and OS_ residing on it (albeit on the same overall physical disk), i.e. Restoring my Mac OS X SuperDuper backup image back onto the current Mac partition... and would the same apply if ever having to restore a Windows 7 Acronis backup image back onto the current BOOTCAMP partition.
3. Would there be another alternative before a drastic reformat and recovery of the Mac OSX partition (if that's even possible without affecting BOOTCAMP - from question 2 above)
Advice would be much appreciated, many thanx.

At the time I had run the 'CHKDSK' command from within Windows, from the 'Run' command prompt located within the Start Menu.
Fortunately I still have the previous HDD that originally came with the MacBook Pro before I upgraded the internal drive some time ago and therefore I have been able to boot externally from this and continue to do so until I've decided what to do, which looks like a recovery from the previous super-duper backup will be inevitable.
I guess I'm unlikely to come across any software or fix that will be capable of correcting the 'faulty number of thread records' being reported after the 'Checking Catalog File' disk repair check routine, however if I find a solution then I'll post it here, otherwise an eventual recovery/install it is.
Under Fortuny's revelation, I will procede with MacDrive with caution and probably disable it if ever running a Windows CHKDSK again (if indeed this is the underlying cause of the problem). And under your advise 'The hatter' I shall certainly look into the Windows system file checker alternative, thanks.

End user permission ignored

Hello,
I have a problem with an end user permission that seems to get ignored: I wanted to demonstrate the usage of the end user permission and assigned a role to a User (for simplicity's sake as an entry point, no worksets, pages etc. involved) and enabled end user permission on the role for that particular user.
Now when that user logs in he gets to see the according entry in the navigation bar as expected. However if I disable the end user permission, log out and again log in the user, he stills sees the link. The end user permission setting is simply ignored. Can someone shed light onto this, could there be something wrong with the installation)?
I don't think this is an issue of permission inheritance (the role permissions are set explicitly anyway) or overlapping permissions due to membership in several groups - the user is only member of the single standard group 'authenticated users'.
Regards,
Sebastian
P.S. What's the use of a role assignment to a user without end user permission anyway (I mean why the option)? What happens if you don't add permissions on a Role for a certain user at all (I tried it, but the effect is the same as described above - end user permission seem to be irrelevant)?

Hi Robert,
thanks for your answer and for the link (and I thought I had read everything). I am not so sure however if I really understand the term 'runtime environment' for a user. I thought runtime vs. design-time meant the difference between the content a user sees when he is actually using the portal and the content an administrator has access to in the portal content catalog, i.e. a meta-environment accessible only through certain tools like the permission editor or similar.
I don't understand what you want to express with "It's used to restrict ... end user runtime environment" and why the "Page Personalization" is an example.
I realize that for roles the availability for a user is solely defined by the assignment of that role to the user - end user permissions have no effect on this. Confusing, because I tought this availability (i.e. showing links in the toplevel or detailed navigation) was what was meant by 'runtime environment' but I seem to be wrong here.
The docu says "for roles the end user permission setting does enable you to define which users/groups/roles are able to preview the role content using the portal design-time tools". Again, I am confused, I thought this was exactly the meaning of design-time environment.
Great if you or someone else could comment on this..
Regards,
Sebastian

Looking for a way to solve permission problem in windows 7

one of the biggest problems i have with this windows that even that i'm an administrator and the owner of the computer i always have permission problems folders i get a no access errors with files and folders even thoughe i should have full permisions i belive system restore doesn't work for me because permissions problem and i don't know what to do anymore i'v used uac i'v disable uac i downloaded a registry file to take owernship on files and folders and still problems so what can i do to solve all this problems?
and to be honest i really don't like the way windows 7 behave with permisions this is my computer and i am an administrator why do i have to fight to access folders like System Volume Information,Recovery,Documents and Settings why do i get the lock icon when i take owenership and i'm on the users list but when i add users everyting is fine?
10x in advance.:)

Hello,
This is by design. You cannot access the folder or files are protected by operation system even if your current user account is Administrator.
System Volume Information is a hidden and protected system folder that the System Restore tools uses to store it information and restore points.
In Recovery folder, there are two files: Winre.wim and boot.sdi. With these two files, you are able to boot the system to Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) and do a repair without inserting a Windows 7 installation disc.
If you want to access the protected folders like “System Volume Information”, use the following method, but I do not recommend you do this. It may cause some potential problems:
1. Right click the System Volume Information folder and choose Properties.
2. In Security tab, click Edit and then click Add. Type in “everyone”(without quote) and click Ok.
3. Then “Everyone“ will be listed under ” Group or user names”, click Everyone, and check “allow” full control option.
As BurrWalnut said, the “Documents and Settings”, it is a junction. A junction point is also a protected operating system folder that points to another folder. The junction point is an important part of application compatibility and does not contain any data or other files. In Windows Vista and Windows 7, the “Documents and Settings” folder has been replaced with “Users” folder. All of your user profiles are saved in C:\Users\User name folder.

How to menage user permission

Hi all!
I'm developing a WEB application for menaging the information on the inside of an industry.
I use struts and JSF.
The problem is that I've different type of user that can connect to the server. (sell manager, engeneer, custumer, segretary...)
Every kind of user must have a diffrent level of access.
Example:the secretary can't access in the "engeneer" zone.
Another problem is:
for the same page,the user must see a different level of details.
Example:in the production page,the engeneer must see all the data,the chemical analist must see only the chemical analisis,and so on...
how can I structure the DB for managing that?
And how can I implement it?
What do you think about creating a level between the DAO to data and the application.
Every data have a specific permission to be see.
When a request for see the data comes,I match the required permission with the user permission.
If the user can't access to data, I throw an exception,that is catch above.
Anybody knows of any kind of articles on this argument?
Any advice?
sorry for my english.

Can I revoke this permissions once I grant?
You can use DROP and REVOKE commands to do the opposite.
USE [msdb]
GO
ALTER ROLE [SQLAgentOperatorRole] DROP MEMBER [TestLogin1]
GO
USE [msdb]
GO
ALTER ROLE [SQLAgentReaderRole] DROP MEMBER [TestLogin1]
GO
USE [msdb]
GO
ALTER ROLE [SQLAgentUserRole] DROP MEMBER [TestLogin1]
GO
use [master]
GO
REVOKE ALTER ANY CREDENTIAL TO [TestLogin1] AS [sa]
GO

Hi, Don,
I solved the problem of security exception I mentioned at java procedure topic as following:
ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception: java.lang.SecurityException
I tried to use your solution as following:
call dbms_java.grant_permission('SDE', 'java.net.SocketPermission', 'ORCL.COHPA.UCF.EDU','resolve');
but SQL*plus gave me a error message:
invalid collumn.
What's the problem?
However, I call a grant command as following:
SQL> grant JAVASYSPRIV to sde;
and then that exception is gone. What's the difference between dbms_java.grant_permission and grant command?
Thanks
Bing

Checking user permission doubt

Hi everyone,
I have posted a question yesterday, but I have no right answer. I want to try again, please help me. It is urgent! I thank in advance.
I am developing a recursive tree in a Web Dynpro App. My tree has some nodes and sub nodes. Under the sub nodes I have documents. These documents are composed of header, footer, address, content and so on, which are loaded in runtime from Backend system. There is possible that thousand documents can be attached to a node. For accessing the documents we need to check the permission of the user. There are users who may read the whole content of a document. There are users who may only read parts of the document. For example, the information about salary of an employee shouldn't be read by every user. How can I check the user permission? Has someone any Suggestion?
Regards,
Hairong

Hi William,
thank you very much for your answer.
I haven't worked with ACL. With your answer, I hava read something about ACL. It is used for checking user permissions for accessing portal content.We have no portal now. Our application is standalone application. Do you know what is a connection between reqular UME permission and UME ACL permission?
By the way, we use UME to store our user profile. We have already tried to check user permission only for UME role of the user. We have also tried to follow the concept like the Web Dynpro tutorial RentCar APP with Actions and permissions. But all these can't resolve our problem really, because we can't create for every document a role or a permisson.
here, ich want also to thank Atul who had me an answer to my question.
Best regards,
Hairong

Account rights and Permission problems!

I have since few day´s MacKeeper installed, but even when I restart my Mac. I can´t use Internetsecurity because of permission problems I have no access to helperlaunch. My Account has Admin rights but helperlaunch get´s the information that I have not the rights to access. When I get a new Account with the same rights it will work. How can I change this at my Original Account?

Open disk utility and repair permissions on your boot volume.
Then, follow this to reset your user permissions:
Turn on the Mac whilst holding down cmd + R. You can let go once you see a spinning dial. You will then see the ”Mac OS X Utilities” screen.
On the top menu, click Utilities, then click Terminal.
Type resetpassword and press Enter.
Click on your main hard drive.
In the dropdown box under “Select the user account” make sure to select your username.
Underneath where it says “Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs”, click the Reset button.
Press cmd + Q to quit the Reset Password application.
Press cmd + Q again to quit the Terminal.
Press cmd + Q one more time and click Restart.

Permission Problems Since Clean Install of Mt. Lion

I did a clean install of Mountain Lion last month. I reinstalled all my apps from freshly downloaded installers, rather than copy anything to my pristine system folder. I copied my music, photos, and other documents from my Time Machine drive. Now, I have constant permission problems on all these folders. I don't have permission to do anything to any of these folders or subfolders. I can't rip a CD to iTunes, I can't sync my iPhone. I can't download anything. I can change the permission on each folder individually, but there must be thousands of them. There must be an easier way. Changing permissions for a parent folder doesn't change the subfolders. Disk Utility reports no problems when I repair disk permissions. Thanks in advance for any help.
Also, the iPhoto app disappeared after the clean install. I don't know how to re-install it. Do I have to wipe my drive clean again and install Leopard from my original DVD that came with my iMac? That would be a huge job to get back to Mountain Lion. I'll post this question in another thread and link it here.

Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -Rh $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word, all lower case, with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’renot going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Back to SUID permission problems

No sooner did I get my permission problems taken care of w/ 10.5, than I got a bunch w/ my 10.5.1 update today. Just FYI, I've got 2 mac's w/ 2 independent 10.5 installs and updates to 10.5.1. Both are giving me the same error message in DU pertaining to SUID permission problems:

Any ideas on fixing this stuff or just wait for Apple to get around to it?

Lightroom catalog permission problem!

Hi everyone,
please help me solve this problem. I reinstall OS X last night to new Yosemite. I did clean install. I made TM backup of my old OS X on external LaCie hdd. I copied my catalog from the backup into my pictures folder on an internal hdd. When I tried to open it this message pops up "Lightroom cannot use the catalog named “Lightroom 5 Catalog” because it is not writable and cannot be opened.". Just to be clear the "get info" permissions are set for "Me" R/W. I don't have any different file inside the folder "pictures" only my catalog.ircat. I can't open original file from the LaCie backup, also permission problem. Thanks for help.

it's all ok. The file for some reason have some info written about the owner. I did change that but it does not matter and still don't work. If I want rename the file then I have to put the password and that is why LR can't work with it. I found the solution already (after 5 hours searching the internet) This helped me http://backdrift.org/fixing-mac-osx-file-permissions-and-acls-from-the-command-line I used sudo chmod -N /here is path to the file/ and enter. This solved all my trouble and I can open the catalog without problems.
