Hi there, Looking for some help in diagnosing or developing a work around to a problem I am having on a Windows machine. I am running R 3.6.2.
I have two identical files, one stored locally and the other stored on a network drive. For access: > file.access(local_file, 4) local.R 0 > file.access(remote_file, 4) remote.R -1 Also for file.info > file.info(local_file)$mode: [1] "666" > file.info(remote_file)$mode: [1] "666" Ok so I am access issues. Maybe they are ephemeral and I can change the permissions: > Sys.chmod('remote.R', mode = '666') > file.access(remote_file, 4) remote.R -1 Nope. I am thoroughly stumped and maybe can't make it any further because of Windows. Downstream I am trying to use digest::digest to create a hash but digest thinks we don't have permission because file.access is failing. Any thoughts on how I can get file.access to return 0 for the remote.R file? Any ideas?
