I am trying to access a directory test
as user ayush
.
This directory is owned by user ayush
and has group git
The directory has permissions 0070, and group git
, and ayush
is a member of that group.
ayush:~> ls -ld
drwxr-xr-x 7 ayush git 4096 Feb 15 11:33 .
ayush:~> ls
test
ayush:~> ls -ld test/
drwxrwx--- 3 ayush git 4096 Feb 15 11:34 test/
ayush:~> chmod 070 test/
ayush:~> ls -ld test/
d---rwx--- 3 ayush git 4096 Feb 15 11:34 test/
ayush:~> ls -l test/
ls: cannot open directory test/: Permission denied
ayush:~> groups
git
ayush:~> id
uid=11417(ayush) gid=30(git) groups=30(git)
I have been seeing this error for a while now and it was not there before. This is not a new group and I have using it in some of my code here and there.
BTW, I switched to another user who is also part of this group who was able to access "test" directory without any issues.
EDIT 1: Its not just this, I am unable to change the group of the folder "test" with 770 permissions. I am getting an "operation not permitted" error. And, I am facing this issue with only the group "git". I am able to switch the group of the folder to another group of which I am a member of. But then I am not able to switch back the user to "git".
EDIT 1
text. Could you show with examples?
