Oh thank god for that! I'd actually done something similiar once... I'd removed a bunch of permissions using chmod -R / rather than chmod -R . ... This was on an oldold NCR Tower 32 running SVR3. I ended up writing a program to go through the archives on tape (yes, tape) and copy only the permission bits from all the tape files. Anyway, a better form of that command is chmod -R a+rX The capital X means "only set the execute bit if any execute bits are set". If you use lower-case x, then you'll send up setting the execute bit for normal files, too, which is another potential security risk. If you want to fix this up, do: find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 chmod a-x chmod a+x manage.py # Restore x for the Django management command Protip: always use the -print0 | xargs -0 form of the "find/xargs" pattern, as this will prevent spaces in your paths from causing havoc. I wish I knew of a better way to set the x bits all the way up the tree, without giving someone a program to run, the best I can come up with is: cd static chmod a+x . .. ../.. ../../.. ../../../.. ../../../../.. ../../../../../.. ../../../../../../.. and hope that's enough :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
