Can't clear cache with drush (file permissions)
I'm getting file permission errors while trying to clear caches using drush. FYI: This is on my own workstation. OS = Mac OSX drush version 5.8 Running as user tim with : linus:~ tim$ id ...,70(_www),... apache is user _www files involved are user:group _www:_www permissions are 664 on files, 755 on the directory, which is sites/default/files/js I note that sites/default/files/css is being handled without error and has permissions of 775 I want to automate this process for the command line as much as possible so would like a solution that doesn't entail clearing from the site itself Would there be anything wrong with changing directory permissions on sites/default/files/js to 775? (My workstation is closed to the outside world) TIA -- Tim tim at tee jay forty nine dot com or akwebsoft dot com http://www.akwebsoft.com
I do that either using sudo to the Apache user sudo -u _www drush cc all or by putting ACLs on the drupal files allowing writing by another user: sudo setfacl -R -m u:tim:rwX sites/default/files sudo setfacl -R -m d:u:tim:rwX sites/default/files drush cc all However, I gather that setfacl is not generally available on Mac OS X.

apache is user _www
files involved are user:group _www:_www permissions are 664 on files, 755 on the directory, which is sites/default/files/js
I note that sites/default/files/css is being handled without error and has permissions of 775
I want to automate this process for the command line as much as possible so would like a solution that doesn't entail clearing from the site itself

I do that either using sudo to the Apache user
sudo -u _www drush cc all
or by putting ACLs on the drupal files allowing writing by another user:
sudo setfacl -R -m u:tim:rwX sites/default/files sudo setfacl -R -m d:u:tim:rwX sites/default/files
drush cc all
However, I gather that setfacl is not generally available on Mac OS X. Thanks Fred. I have lately transitioned from linux to OS X .... you are correct about setfacl not being available, but I think that OS X has a comparable feature, I just need to figure it out.
Will let you all know. -- Tim tim at tee jay forty nine dot com or akwebsoft dot com http://www.akwebsoft.com
If memory serves you set ACL in OSx via chmod. You might want to check the man on that. Jamie Holly http://www.intoxination.net http://www.hollyit.net On 7/2/2013 4:10 PM, Tim Johnson wrote:
