Re: Permissions question...

 

Let me learn a bit more about Ubuntu groups, and I will return later. I clearly am beyond my knowledge base here...

I see no group for node-red anywhere...

Dave I agree with Mick on below, and it will probably fix your issue.

Doing the other things mentioned are useful in general.

Dave,

Your file permissions are fine for read and write.

-rw-rw-rw- 1 dcole dcole 3 Jun 11 05:20 /home/dcole/scripts/solar_data/incoming/lotwcount.txt. What group is node red being run from?
You can check /etc/group. If it is not in the same group you can add dcole to the node red group

chown 'node-red-group':dcole //home/dcole/scripts/solar_data/incoming/lotwcount.txt





Can you even write to the file? From all the above posts, I am getting the impression you can't even write to it.

At this point Dave,? I would just work with Adrian on this. Too many cooks in the kitchen.

Hi Adrian,

?

I created two dynamic dropdown lists, and each one works.

Then I added a Switch node to select what list should be used, based on the getradio response.? ? I'm stuck ... but I wanted to share that this will work for your radio and mine, automatically, if I can get the Switch node to cooperate.

I tried using both the msg.payload output from MQTT and the flow.getradio variables... same response (not working).

It's Saturday here, and I need to run the roads ...? If you see my error, please let me know.

?

EDIT>>>? The one thing that comes to mind is that perhaps the getradio and mqtt string is UTF16 and is not matching my typed in string.

Perhaps the file is in a directory that requires administrative privileges??

I suggest two ideas.

1- Move the file to different locations, like the documents directory.
2- prepend a "sudo" to your Node-Red read file command, with a password. ?The command will look like this: ? "sudo -S <<< "password"?

Re: Permissions question...

 

Dave can? you run the following command and print the output:

ls -l /home/dcole/scripts/solar_data/incoming/lotwcount.txt

Permissions question...

 

Hi,

I am trying to read a file under Ubuntu... The file is under my home directory, as shown in the screen capture...

I am using readfile, and all permissions are set to read/write for everyone on system, for the target file.

I know this is some sort of permissions issue, but I don't know what it is... Any suggestions?
