jemurray@dsg:~ $ touch test
touch: test: Permission denied
Looking at the basic permission I see:
jemurray@dsg:/Users $ ls -al
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 5 root admin 170 Dec 11 16:15 .
drwxr-xr-x 30 root wheel 1088 Dec 13 16:15 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 0 Jun 20 15:00 .localized
drwxrwxrwt 3 root wheel 102 Dec 11 16:08 Shared
drwxr-xr-x@ 24 jemurray staff 816 Dec 13 09:01 jemurray
Looking at the extend permissions on the home directory I see:
jemurray@dsg:~ $ ls -lea
total 112
drwxr-x---@ 24 jemurray staff 816 Dec 13 09:01 .
0: group:everyone deny add_file,delete,add_subdirectory,delete_child,writeattr,writeextattr,chown
This is incorrect, it should be:
jemurray@dsg:~ $ ls -ale
total 112
drwxr-x---@ 24 jemurray staff 816 Dec 13 16:35 .
0: group:everyone deny delete
The problem was fixed by running this command:
cd ~
sudo chmod =a# 0 "group:everyone deny delete" .
It works:
jemurray@dsg:~ $ touch test
jemurray@dsg:~ $
Thanks a ton - saved my day! :)
