Does anyone have experience with configuring the CF Server and Unix such that the UMASK controls what file access permissions are set to for any file created by CF Studio?
Ours currently sets all files to 644 which means only the Owner has Read, Write permissions. We want the Group to also have Read and Write permissions or 664. This requires a UMASK of 002 but currently it is using a UMASK of 022. Our sys admin found that CF Studio already sets the "umask" as a variable in the start script of the coldfusion daemons. That's where it determines the permissions on the files that are created by those daemons. It appears there is a bug or an error in their code. They are passing UMASK as a variable, but UMASK is not a variable at the unix level. They may be trying to set the value in their code and my guess is it is incorrect. As already stated, it should be set of 002, so that owner and group have writable permission, but instead it is using 022. Any light on this subject would be helpful! ------------------------------------------------- Bruce Holm - Web Programmer Lattice Semiconductor Corp.
