I met a strange situation, anybody can help me ? I install a SuSE 6.3 version at my new PC recently, everything seems OK, but when I download a package file from internet or my friends send me a tar file, for example, such like 'php-3.0.13.tar.gz' , After I extract that file by "tar xvfz php-3.0.13.tar.gz" command, and that will create a directory named 'php-3.0.13' and the directory owner will become "drwxrwxr-x 507 507 4096 Jan 10 10:50 php-3.0.13", and below this directory, all files owner become same "507 507 ". Before this 6.3 version, I never met this , So I try that same package at SuSE 6.1 and 6.0, that looks fine, all files and directory owner is my name. So, anybody met this problem ? Any anybody can help me ?
Have you tried going to the directory that contains the php-3.0.13 subdirectory and doing chown -R hsu.users php-3.0.13 That changes the ownership of php-3.0.13 and everything below it to user hsu, group users. If all else fails you can do that as root.
