I just finished installing MongoDB on OSX and setup a directory structure with sudo mkdir -p /data/db.
When I attempt to run mongod from my user account it returns an error stating that my user account does not have read/write permission to /data/db.
How can I set the proper read/write permissions on my account for /data/db?
Ensure that user account running mongod has the proper directory permissions. You can check which permissions are set like so:
ls -ld /data/db/
If they are set properly they should look something like this..
drwxr-xr-x X user wheel XXX Date Time /data/db/
If the permissions are set incorrectly you will likely see an error similar to this when attempting to run mongod
exception in initAndListen: XXXXX Unable to create/open lock file: /data/db/mongod.lock errno:13 Permission denied Is a mongod instance already running?, terminating
To get the permissions set as they should be you can run the following command
sudo chmod 0755 /data/db && sudo chown $USER /data/db
sudo chmod 777 /data/db/
Should work on Mac. Before running this cmd, permissions look like
drwxr-xr-x X User wheel Date /data/db
after running the cmd
drwxrwxrwx X User wheel Date /data/db
This is what worked for me. I am using a Mac, although you could try if you're using windows.
sudo chmod 777 /data/db
There are three categories of users: owners, those in the group, and everyone else; chmod 777 /path/to/file lets everyone read/write the file, but chmod 775 /path/to/file lets only the owner/group read/write the file. Definitely use chmod 775 /path/to/file if you're developing a web server.
Some useful reading, especially for reasoning behind why 777, 775, and so on are used rather than other numbers: https://www.maketecheasier.com/file-permissions-what-does-chmod-777-means/
None of these suggestions are correct, there's something else wrong with mongodb-org-3.4.16-1.el7.x86_64. It cannot start with a custom db path.
[root#localhost vagrant]# chmod 777 /data/ /data/mongodb
[root#localhost vagrant]# chown mongod:mongod /data/ /data/mongodb

where group is a group of your user
None of the given answers were working for me. I ended up configuring my personal OS user to be the root user, then manually went to the db folder - right clicked to view info - and added myself with read and write permissions.
According to Mongodb University course M103 the permission level will be
sudo chmod 600 /path/to/db

i tried by giving permission (775) to bootstrap/cache and storage folder - it works fine on that day but next day it gives error again with new created log file.
The stream or file "/var/www/public_html/myProject/storage/logs/laravel-2021-03-31.log" could not be opened in append mode: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /var/www/public_html/myProject/vendor/monolog/monolog/src/Monolog/Handler/StreamHandler.php:111
i found the solution here:
i have two users on linux server
1 : ubuntu
2 : www-data
i added ubuntu user to www-data group and same as wwww-data to ubuntu group.
so now both users can read there files,
second thing i did is -> i updated app/config/logging.php
and define the permissions (0666) for newly created log file for "daily" and "single".
This might help you:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/{laravel_project_name}
link:
https://dev.to/613596/permission-denied-for-laravel-8-storage-logs-solved-2021-12ld
You have permission issue in your path /var/www/public_html/myProject/storage/logs/.
Try to run the following command
Change the files/directories group to apache/nginx, I used www-data it's the default user of apache on Ubuntu (Use your http server user/group name instead of www-data)
sudo chown :www-data -R /var/www/public_html/myProject/storage/
Now change the file permission once again
sudo chmod 775 -R /var/www/public_html/myProject/storage/
You can also add UID, GID, SID to handle more efficiently
I'm trying to run a simple Laravel command line on my Elastic Beanstalk instance: php artisan queue:work
But I keep getting the following error:
In StreamHandler.php line 107:
The stream or file "/var/app/current/storage/logs/laravel.log" could
not be opened: failed to open stream: Permission denied
I've tried every solution I can find on SO (except the chmod -R 777 advice that seems to trail this question everywhere).
I've tried deleting the existing laravel.log and then using touch to create a new one, and then making sure webapp is the owner.
I've also tried:
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/app/current/storage/
sudo chown -R webapp /var/app/current/storage/
When I list the logs directory, everything looks as I think it should:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 webapp webapp 0 Apr 4 14:38 laravel.log
The storage directory also looks fine:
drwxr-xr-x 6 webapp webapp 4096 Apr 3 19:33 storage
But I'm still getting the above error! Can anyone explain why (not just give a solution).
Thank you
So the simple answer is that I was running the command as ec2-user. As a solution, I could either:
Change the ownership of laravel.log to ec2-user
Run the command as the owner (eg. sudo -u webapp php artisan queue:work)
Switch to root with sudo su to see how it would be run during deployment (ie. as root)
Nothing was especially wrong.
When you log into an EBS instance via ssh, you're logged in as ec2-user.
I don't believe the ec2-user is part of the webapp group which is actually executing PHP & apache/nginx.
Try adding your ec2-user to the webapp group by creating an ebextension in the root of your Laravel project under .ebextensions/ec2user.config
users:
ec2-user:
groups:
- webapp
Prove this is the problem by turning off selinux with the command
sudo setenforce 0
This should allow writing, but you've turned off added security server-wide. That's bad. Turn SELinux back
sudo setenforce 1
Then finally use SELinux to allow writing of the file by using this command
sudo chcon -R -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t storage
And you're off!
When I try to create a new file/folder in PhpStorm I get a Permission denied error. However, when I create a new file in a folder that already exists in the root directory of my server I can without any errors.
When I try to create a new file:
[2016-03-07 11:29 AM] Failed to transfer file 'C:\Users\D\PhpstormProjects\example2\test.php': could not write to "sftp://www.example.com/test.php". (Permission denied)
[2016-03-07 11:29 AM] Automatic upload completed in less than a minute: 2 items failed
When I try to create a new folder:
[2016-03-07 11:27 AM] Failed to create folder '/var/www/html/test': could not create folder "sftp://www.example.com/test". (Permission denied)
[2016-03-07 11:27 AM] Automatic upload completed in less than a minute: 1 item failed
You can try this :
chmod -R 777 /var/www
chgrp www-data /var/www
chown -R www-data /var/www
useradd -G {www-data} your_username
The issue solved itself after restart.
PhpStorm support gave this answer:
Please try to run File > Invalidate Caches/Restart > Invalidate and Restart.
If it still fails please send me idea.lof file as described here:
https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/207241085-Locating-IDE-log-files
Prior to deleting, modifying and transferring files, you need to give them the permissions to the data group for the user who will perform the operations.
$ sudo usermod -a -G www-data your_username
$ sudo chgrp -R www-data /var/www/html
$ sudo chmod -R g+w /var/www/html
Checklist:
Make sure you own the files, so if you are in the sudo group then you can do sudo chown -R myusername:sudo /var/www/html/test/. This is to make sure that it will also work for other people in the group.
Make sure that you have write permissions, i.e. read and write access also for the group. You can do this with sudo chmod -R 755 /var/ww/html/test/ (Unfortunately I have found that in practice you sometimes need 777 permissions, but this is not desirable.)
Make sure your deployment path mappings are correct, by going to Settings | Deployment | Mappings, and check that the Deployment path is indeed relative to the root path (under Connection)
After fixing permissions on server you need restart phpstorm. Worked for me on Ubuntu 17.10
When I try to start mongo db I get the following error:
Trying to run the command : ./mongod --dbpath=../data
Failed to unlink socket file /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock errno:13 Permission denied
Fatal Assertion 28578
As per the suggestions from other posts, have tried to locate the file /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock, to delete. But the file itself is not available.
But when I tried to do it using root, I am able to start the mongo DB. For normal users it fails.
Version used: mongodb-osx-x86_64-3.0.2
Remove file
/tmp/mongodb-27017.sock
/dbpath/mongod.lock
try start with any user not root user.
Current user does not have permissions to delete that file.
Grant permissions to the current user:
sudo chown `whoami` /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock
The following steps work for me:
sudo rm /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock
sudo systemctl start mongod // wont start but will create .sock file again
sudo chown "[current user]" /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock
sudo systemctl start mongod // will start now
sudo systemctl status mongod // should show active
I'm trying to install hadoop for the first time and I'm following this tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrxQXfE7t9A & https://sites.google.com/site/howtohadoop/how-to-install-hdp#bmec2
What I'm trying to do is setting up the master node to access the other slave node. So, when it comes to set the permission for the /root/.ssh folder by "chmod 700 /root/.ssh" an error message is displayed that I do not have permission.
I couldn't understand why this message? Why I do not have permission?
any help?
You don't have permission since you are not logged in as root and trying to play with the files owned by root. Run sudo chmod 700 /root/.ssh . sudo makes you run commands as root on the system.
