Advice that directory /home/odoo/.cache Needs permission update

[hbto]

When first running pre-commit-vauxoo

It tries to create new folders at directory /home/odoo/.cache/

But in doing so an Exception is raised:

PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/home/odoo/.cache/

Changing ownership on folder from root to odoo is needed

chown -R odoo:odoo /home/odoo/.cache/ 

as directory is owned by root:

It would be good to have this advice when running t2d

docker exec -it --user=root CONTAINER chown -R odoo:odoo /home/odoo/.cache/

This folder can be changed during the image build since it is not a volume (I think so)

Could you check what particular folders or files in the /home/odoo path has root permissions in order to run chown from the Dockerfile, please?

e.g. chown -R odoo:odoo /home/odoo/.config from https://github.com/Vauxoo/travis2docker/issues/172

and chown -R odoo:odoo /home/odoo/.cache

Also, the following path is missing in the PATH /home/odoo/.local/bin

BTW Maybe something is not working well here:

• https://github.com/Vauxoo/travis2docker/blob/53beaaa58b7ac3296adbdfcfbb0c3bc6783fb4e2/src/travis2docker/templates/build.sh#L178

Notice we don't like to run chown -R odoo:odoo /home/odoo/ because of it spends a lot of time and almost of the path already have odoo permission

I don't think we can place it in the Dockerfile since these folders are not part of the base install, but are generated by optional programs, like vim.

In this case .cache being owned by root is caused by choosing installing the ctrpl plugin for vim. /home/odoo/.spf13-vim-3 is also owned by root but I don't think that causes any problems.

I also could not find /home/odoo/.config, on the images I created. What program is using that directory?

[moylop260]

You can use a find with not user

• find /home/odoo -maxdepth 1 -not -user odoo -exec chown -R odoo:odoo {} \;

FYI $HOME/.cache is a generic folder used from pre-commit, pip and so on
