How to change default permission of Cofiles

[Former Member]

Hello Team,

While releasing the TR from development the file permission for cofiles is set to 664 (-rw-rw-r--) by default. Hence we have to give 777 permission to the cofile manually before importing the TR to quality and production.

Kindly help me in assigning 777 as a default permission for cofiles to enable auto import of TR to quality.

I had tried env variable umask=000 and parameter install/umask=000. Both didn't worked in my case.

Thanks you.

Hello,

You need to mention the umask in the .login file, and restart the sap instance to ensure that the current parameters are picked up during system startup. Also please check that the quality and prod systems are:

- sharing the same trans directory AND

- OS users sidadm/sapsys have the same UID/GID as in Dev (where the trans folder is mounted)

In case both these are already set, and the issue still persists, please try to set the parent folder with 777 permissions, and the import will work thereafter.

Do note that its not recommended to grant 777 permission to trans directory, as it could be a possible security threat to the system.
