Subject: Can't copy file even with Admin permissions
Date: Sun, 2 Jan 2022 16:20:24 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <25042.5912.353024.105212@consult.pretender> (raw)
I have file: /c/Config.Msi/3da9e136.rbf that I cannot copy, even when
I run bash as an administrator -- seemingly due to perm/acl errors.
Specifically:
# mv 3da9e136.rbf newfile: works
# cp 3da9e136.rbf newfile: works
But,
# cp -a 3da9e136.rbf newfile
cp: preserving permissions for ‘newfile’: Permission denied
(though the file is created)
If I then do
# getfacl 3da9e136.rbf | setfacl -f - newfile
setfacl: more than one user entry.
And:
# getfacl 3da9e136.rbf
# file: 3da9e136.rbf
# owner: Administrators
# group: SYSTEM
user::rwx
group::rwx
other::r-x
user::rwx
group::rwx
group:SYSTEM:rwx
mask::rwx
other::r-x
While:
# getfacl newfile
# file: newfile
# owner: Administrators
# group: SYSTEM
user::rwx
group::rwx
other::r-x
So the problem seems to be that the 'user' (and presumably also the
'group' and 'other') ACLs are duplicated.
- Is this a bug? (or a feature?)
- Any idea how or why this happened?
- Any idea how (or whether) to fix?
