https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=443503 Summary: rails "projectname" fails to create "projectname" with error "Operation not permitted - projectname/script/about" on fat32 partition. Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: d_birch@hotmail.co.uk QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Overview Description: I type "rails myproject" at the command line (konsole) and although rails successfully creates some directories before the process has completed fully I receive this error message - "Operation not permitted - projectname/script/about" Steps to Reproduce: Open a command line, cd to a directory on a FAT32 partition... then type # rails myproject Actual Results: linux-vpvw:/windows/D # rails myproject create create app/controllers create app/helpers create app/models create app/views/layouts create config/environments create config/initializers create db create doc create lib create lib/tasks create log create public/images create public/javascripts create public/stylesheets create script/performance create script/process create test/fixtures create test/functional create test/integration create test/unit create vendor create vendor/plugins create tmp/sessions create tmp/sockets create tmp/cache create tmp/pids create Rakefile create README create app/controllers/application.rb create app/helpers/application_helper.rb create test/test_helper.rb create config/database.yml create config/routes.rb create config/initializers/inflections.rb create config/initializers/mime_types.rb create config/initializers/new_rails_defaults.rb create config/boot.rb create config/environment.rb create config/environments/production.rb create config/environments/development.rb create config/environments/test.rb create script/about Operation not permitted - myproject/script/about Expected Results: I wont bore you with the full screen output unless you ask me to, but essentially a whole load of directories and files would be created with no errors - similar to the output in the Actual Results section Build Date & Platform: OpenSuse 11.0 i686 - I expect (sorry, don't know how to check. Its a laptop with a AMD Turion 64 x2) Additional Information: Rails runs just fine in my home directory - which I think is reiserFs? e.g. linux-vpvw:/home/dbirch/Desktop/workspace # rails myproject The partition I'm having problems with run rails on is a FAT32 partition which is used as storage space to share information easily between windows and suse. It is not the default windows partition (C drive) but a separate 6 gig partition (a little like a USB drive for example). Finally, I have tried running rails similarly on a USB drive (also formatted with FAT32 [I think]). Rails fails before completion, interestingly a little later in the process than on the hard disk partition with a similar error message - "Operation not permitted - myproject/log/server.log" -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
