Write permissions #27

Open twsh opened 8 years ago

twsh commented 8 years ago

I'm using the owncloud client with Davros to sync files between computers running OSX and Ubuntu 14.04. Files created on one have only read permissions set on the other, rather than read and write.

Thomas, as I recall, you said elsewhere that this seems to specifically relate to files that are marked as the owner having no write permission, on the filesystem of the system that sync'd them initially. Let me know if my recollection is accurate!

Hmm, perhaps I could make it a little bit clearer when the user only has read-only access?

paulproteus commented 8 years ago

FWIW I meant filesystem permissions, not Davros permissions, in my remark.

twsh commented 8 years ago

They have read and write on the system they were created on. Only read on the other one. (This goes both ways.)

I seem to notice the same issues syncing between a MAC and a Win10 machine. Obviously if I am syncing I'd like to have write permissions on every client which syncs the data, otherwise I'd just use a backup tool not a sync tool. Can you replicate this problem? Anything we can do for further testing?
