EPERM error #23

Closed Coretool closed 8 years ago

Coretool commented 9 years ago

When I try to use dir.paths on "F:\" I get the following error! How can I fix it ?

Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, stat 'F:\found.000' at Error (native)

fshost commented 9 years ago

is F:\found.000 a file, and if so, does your node app have read permissions for it?

Coretool commented 9 years ago

I executed it with root permission (on windows admin), isn't that enough ?

fshost commented 9 years ago

Its possible that admin might not have read access to a file in Windows and the error sounds like a read permission issue. Can you check the file permissions for it, and if possible, set the read permission for the user or group (presumably Administrators) running the node process? Alternatively, you could try adding an exclude option for that file.
