Subject: mount paths in Tizen not accessible to normal user

 

Hi ,

 

We need our native media player to access media on a USB stick.

The media player is running as a normal user.

 

For this, as a normal user, I created a folder ~/mypath. Then as a root I
mounted the USB on it.

However, I see that this path is now owned by root and no access rights to
anybody but root.

As a root I tried changing the ownership to normal user, using chown, but it
was not permitted.

I also tried to give permissions for a normal user to access this, using
chmod, but that was not permitted either.

 

 

Is some security feature of Tizen preventing this or is this a bug?

Is there a way to get around this?

 

Regards,

 

Vidyesh
