[Bug 1578387] Re: Mythexport creates files with wrong permissions

 

I have worked around this by adding:

system("chmod 666 \'$self->{_outputFile}$self->{_extension}\'");

after the ffmpeg line in the .pm file in the configs folder. This seems
inelegant but does work. Another user on the mythtv-users mailing list
confirmed they were affected the same after upgrading 12.04 to 14.04 and
provided the fix. Although this works I am still interested as to what
changed between the two versions to require this fix.

Title:
  Mythexport creates files with wrong permissions

Status in mythexport package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I upgraded my system from Ubuntu 12.04 to 14.04. Back in 12.04 the
  files that mythexported created had 666 permissions, owner mythtv,
  group mythtv. In 14.04 they are still the same owner and group but
  have permissions 600. This means that I cannot download them through
  the RSS feed - I get a 403 error.
