Permissions issues

We are experiencing a few problems with a new TeamSite 6.7.1. installation on T2000 Solaris 10 server:

1. Are the following permissions correct for iwmnt and .iwmnt after installation? What should the permissions be after installation?
We have:
drwxrwxr-- 6 root root 512 Jun 2 10:30 iwmnt
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 512 Jun 2 10:30 .iwmnt

2. When logged in as a regular user we are unable to run cmdline TeamSite commands, it gives an error that it can't find the DCR specified under iwmnt. The DCR exists. Is there supposed to be a proxy set up to run commands as root?

3. If we try to open a DCR we get the following error:
com.interwoven.ui.datacapture.core.dct.InlineCallout$InlineCalloutException: Cannot open config file '/iwmnt/CCMC/main/evaluation/WORKAREA/primary/includes/log.conf' at /opt/Interwoven/TeamSite/iw-perl/site/lib/Log/Log4perl/Config.pm line 607.

I do not have a Solaris install so I cannot tell you what the perms of iwmnt should be, but on Linux the are:
rwxr-xr-x root root iwmnt

There is no .iwmnt for Linux

#2 you do not have permission to get to the specific DCR, so it is not a TS command issue, rather it is the permissions for the branch/workarea you are using, you do not have set correctly

#3 is your imported DCT has a problem it cannot read a config file it needs to.

All 3 could be the same basic permissions.

Since this is a new install of TS but it appears you have an old backing store, where did it come from ? What users are on the server ? Local or LDAP ?

We deployed files from an existing TeamSite 6.7.1. server with permissions 755. The existing server has been upgraded to 6.7.1. from 6.5 and other undocumented adjustments were made which is why we are not sure what a clean 6.7.1. install should look like.

We have O/S users with their TS accounts set up using roles author, editor, administrator or master.

If you are using local accounts for your OS users, then Andy on TS61 and Andy on TS 671 server are different people and a file owned in 1 server may be owned by nobody on the other server.

Open the TS GUI with root and start looking that the properties of the branches, workareas and individual files. Are the owners correct ?

They're only different users if the UID's for the accounts were not preserved from one system to the other.

Is this 671 or 671SP1?
How are these roles configured?
671 does not use the conf/roles/*.uid files - it uses FlexRoles in which specific roles are associated with specific users on specific branches.

Tarek

We are talking about 6.7.1. not SP1. The roles are the default out of the box TS roles.

The files were redeployed to adjust permission to directory="2755" file="0664" . All files are deployed to group="ccmc" and user="x"

The users have the same UID between the two servers except two users, iwui and iwts do not. iwui and iwts took the users' UID on installation on the new server.

Can somebody confirm that
drwxrwxr-- 6 root root 512 Jun 2 10:30 iwmnt
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 512 Jun 2 10:30 .iwmnt
is correct permission on TS 6.7.1 installation on Solaris?

Do you mean you deployed TS installation files/directories from an existing TeamSite 6.7.1 server?

Tarek

No the deployment is of custom application files and data files to a ContentStore Branch. Then we deploy executable scripts from the TS Branch into the TS tree.

The 6.7.1 installation was a clean install including adding Oracle DBD and other perl modules.

Did you assign each user specific roles on specific branches?
If not - you should probably spend some time looking at the Admin manual and learning how FlexRoles work in 671 - users (other than Masters) no longer have global roles - the roles are assigned per user per branch.

If you created this new backing store through deployment of file assets (instead of bringing over the backing store from the other server and migrating it) - then the fact that iwui / iwts have different UIDs should probably not matter too much.
