permission issue with maven during install

[John McLean]

Hi folks, 

I'm working through the install of xnat on my server. I'm getting the following error when I run /bin/setup.sh (i.e. steps 4 on the install instructions):

Using XDAT Installation: /home/jmclean/xnat

Using JAVA_HOME:         /usr/java/jdk1.7.0_07

 

Verify Java Version (with java -version)

java version "1.6.0_24"

OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.11.4) (rhel-1.49.1.11.4.el6_3-x86_64)

OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b12, mixed mode)

 

chmod: changing permissions of `/home/jmclean/xnat/plugin-resources/maven-1.0.2/bin/maven': Operation not permitted

Executing /home/jmclean/xnat/plugin-resources/maven-1.0.2/bin/maven xdat:setup

....

I looked in the setup.sh file and I see the line:

chmod 775 "$MAVEN_HOME"/bin/maven

So I guess this is what is failing, but I'm not sure why, I mean, I could do sudo chmod etc but I thought I'd be masking a more fundamental problem.

Any tips would be much appreciated

Many Thanks

John

Hey John,

 

I can only imagine that the ownership of some folder or file at some level down to the xnat/plugin-resources/maven-1.0.2/bin/maven script is not owned by the user running the setup.sh script. So I think the sudo/chmod operation is actually what you want to do. Basically your xnat folder and everything underneath it should be owned and accessible to the same user account you’re using when launching the setup.sh script.

 

You could do something like:

 

find ~/xnat –ls

 

Look and see if anything looks weird, i.e. root owns some folder or permissions are set to 000 or whatever.
