[Dspace-general] Permissions problem

[Graham Triggs]

You need to change the owner that your application server (Tomcat) is running under.

You are currently running it as root, so all the files that it creates are being given root ownership. If you run it as the user 'dspace', then all files will be created with dspace ownership.

Note, that you will need to reset the permissions on all your root owned files for DSpace to be able to access those files.

Subject: [Dspace-general] Permissions problem

Hello,

I have detected a problem with permissions. The [dspace] directory and 
files inside it has dspace:dspace group and owner respectively.

But certain files has root:root group and user owners. This files are 
those in the assetstore and export direcctories and news-side_es.html, 
news-top_es.html, cocoon.log and dspace.log files. Both log files are 
changed when a rotation is performed, i.e., when dspace.log.1 and 
cocoon.log.1 files are created. How can I keep dspace:dspace owners in 
those files?

Thanks.
