Description Martin Taal CLA 2007-01-02 16:35:12 EST
I am not able to publish a build of EMFT Teneo because of permission problems on a server (webserver?). Nick Boldt told me that the problem was related to the fact that I don't have permission anymore to write into:
/home/data/httpd/download.eclipse.org/technology/emft/teneo/

One other thing Nick remarked:
The ideal solution here would be if the dir could be sticky
such that anything created in it is set to group 'emft-teneo', instead of
'emft-admin'.

gr. Martin

You need to ask the EMFT project lead to add you to the emftadmin group.  We can't assign group ownership to emft-teneo for download files as we need to track disk space quotas independently of CVS files.

Is this a new requirement? I seem to recall having more than one group with write perms on download.eclipse.org... or at least that Martin's been able to publish to download.eclipse.org in the past: http://www.eclipse.org/emft/downloads/?project=teneo

Ah, well. On behalf of Ed who's on vacation at the moment, if this is the only way to allow Martin to publish his own builds, please add Martin Taal (user: mtaal) to the emftadmin group for the aforementioned folder, or add him to the ACL instead, whatever works.

It's nothing new -- it dates waaay back to when download.eclipse.org was a separate server, and you needed an account, etc etc..   downloads files have always been separate from CVS files.

I've added Martin to the group, as per your request.
