Incorrect system file permissions in 10.11.x

[mortopc4]

After creating the new user and booting to the user, system folders such as Downloads have a red minus on them and indicate that the "folder cannot be opened because you do not have permissions to see the contents."

Although this can be fixed manually, is there a way to fix this through the application?

Cheers!

CreateUserPkg does not create the home directory, it's typically created automatically on first login by the system. So I guess the question is how was the home directory created, and who exactly owns them if not the newly logged in user?

Having a user library needs to be repaired when logging in for the first time with this user Os 10.11.3+

I get the "user library needs to be repaired" issue on 10.11.3 as well. I have not used the packages on prior 10.11 revisions, so I cannot confirm whether this issue is specifically 10.11.3 or 10.11 in general.

Please post a screenshot of your CreateUserPkg settings, and the output of ls -al and df -h ~ (without repairing the library).

I've seen this before on different OS versions but mainly when upgrading an OS and retaining an existing user home. And this is on systems that don't use CreateUserPkg.

The fix I implemented although lazy does work, and that was to delete the user Keychains folder.

Please let me know if there's anything else that I can provide.

I think that's a nope on the attachments :) Either post on github or maybe post links? The important part is the output of ls -al and df -h ~ though.

Per, I've updated my previous comment with the screenshots.

It looks like the home directory was created by the Citrix Receiver installer, and not on first login by the OS. Try without it.

I still have this issue. How do I fix this? on 10.11.3+

[MagerValp]

Most likely by removing the offending package from your workflow.

I did try to run it by it self and it seems to work so must be a MDM issue.
