man 2 rename /EACCES 09.11.2018 19:23, Linda Walsh пишет:
I had two items in dir 'a', file1 and dir1 (empty) I have full rwx access to 'a' (and am owner): dir a: drwxrwxrwx 3 law lawgroup 29 Nov 9 07:59 ./ dr-xr-xr-x 2 law lawgroup 6 Nov 9 07:25 dir1/ -r--r--r-- 1 law lawgroup 0 Nov 9 07:25 file1
dir b: drwxrwxrwx 2 law lawgroup 6 Nov 9 07:59 ./
try to move everything in 'a' to 'b':
mv a/* b/ mv: cannot move 'a/dir1' to 'b/dir1': Permission denied
I know this is basic unix/linux 101, but I need some review:
Permissions of parent allow things to transfer in and out of the parent, right?
The settings on file1 and dir1 for 'read-only' should affect the file and the directory, right?
So why is moving 'dir1' from 'a' to 'b' disallowed? Shouldn't the move only look at the rw permissions on 'a' and 'b'?
To "emphasize the point": 1) I can do a 'cp -a a/dir1 b/' which works. Since they are on the same device, even hardlinks will be duplicated. 2) I can then follow-up with 'rmdir a/dir1', which also works (no warning like when removing a file): > rm a/file1 rm: remove write-protected regular empty file 'a/file1'?
I.e. the exact same actions 'mv' would do if I was copying between devices.
So could someone explain why move doesn't use the parent directory permissions? I don't remember this being standard unix behavior...??
