https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=194477 Bug ID: 194477 Summary: 10.1-RC1 tar(1) spurious directory permission error message Product: Base System Version: 10.1-RC1 Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: Needs Triage Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: John.Marshall@riverwillow.com.au I don't know if tar(1) is the culprit or an innocent bystander but this is what I am seeing on 10.1-RC1 (r272468 amd64). The archive appears to be written properly prior to generation of the error message. Although the user is permitted to traverse the parent directory and read the -C directory, tar(1) emits the complaint if the parent directory is not also readable. Filesystem is UFS. $ tar -czf dtt.tgz -C /data/tftp/thlan . tar: .: Unable to continue traversing directory tree: Permission denied tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors. $ $ ls -ld /data /data/tftp /data/tftp/thlan drwxr-xr-x 33 root wheel 1024 2 Sep 20:13 /data drwxr-x--x 4 root wheel 512 23 Apr 09:00 /data/tftp drwxr-x--x 3 john wheel 512 23 Apr 10:28 /data/tftp/thlan # chmod o+r /data/tftp $ tar -czf dtt.tgz -C /data/tftp/thlan . $ I haven't played with 10.0 but this behaviour is different to other earlier releases (e.g. 9.3-RELEASE doesn't do this). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
