This sounds like a umask issue. If the default umask is set to 0027 then it will not allow other permissions.
Switch to root and run the following command to see the default file permissions: umask -S Sample Output if no other permissions: u=rwx,g=rx,o= This is also the same as 0027 umask. You might be able to change the default for root or the default in the init.d MarkLogic script so that default is 0022 (which would be u=rwx,g=rx,o=rx). This will likely change all files written by MarkLogic including the Forests. If you need the forests written without other read permissions and ErrorLog.txt written with other read permissions, then this will probably not help your issue.

By default, the permission is 640 for ErrorLog.txt & AuditLog.txt. We want default permission to 644. (let it be for all the log files) Is there any way, it can be configured at MarkLogic level.
