Have you checked what the permissions on a file you created by Windows
looks
like under Cygwin and seen some problem? If so, please post the details
and
perhaps someone can help. Otherwise, I'd suggest just doing the above and
working with the result unless you see problems. In general, unless you've
done something to restrict access in Windows, Cygwin can see and interact
with "natively created" files just fine.
Sorry to bang on about this, but here's a little more detail. If I start
in a Cygwin shell:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /c/Apache/htdocs/comsite
$ ls -l index.html
-rwx------ 1 sholden None 13834 Dec 20 14:33 index.html
Then in a Windows shell I run the following Python:
C:\Apache\htdocs\comsite>python
Python 2.4.1 (#65, Mar 30 2005, 09:13:57) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on
win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from stat import *
>>> from os import chmod
>>> chmod("index.html", S_IRWXU|S_IRGRP|S_IWGRP|S_IROTH|S_IWOTH)
>>>
This does not have the desired effect:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /c/Apache/htdocs/comsite
$ ls -l index.html
-rwx------ 1 sholden None 13834 Dec 20 14:33 index.html
I'm quite happy to take this up as a Python error if indeed it is. But
if so I'd appreciate understanding how I could use cacls to assert
-rwxr-xr-x on that file.
My hope is that I'm overlooking a stupid error here.
regards
Steve
