i am trying to run node.js from an account called "foo" and wish to write
into an area in the bar.com area:
/home/bar.com/public_html/openDirectory/
i am trying to use mkdirp and am getting the following error:
process.setuid(555) ; // 555 is foo's UID
mkdirp( '/home/bar.com/public_html/openDirectory' , function(err) {
{ [Error: EACCES, mkdir '/home/bar.com/public_html/openDirectory']
errno: 3,
code: 'EACCES',
path: '/home/bar.com/public_html/openDirectory' }
mkdirp works fine for me when i run as root or when i write into foo's
area, but when i try to mkdirp in another users area, i get the EACCESS
error.
the /home/bar.com/public_html/openDirectory area is set up with 777
protection:
drwxrwxrwx 1 bar.com bar.com 4096 Nov 18 12:34 openDirectory
i was tempted to look into seeing if i could temporarily grant the node
process root privilege, but wanted to run the issue by some others first.
any suggestions for a first-time posting?
