Top Post : Problem Solved ==>>system can only see filepro files as root - user1 will not see filepro files - maybe partly OT

[Tony Freehauf]

Thanks for all the help
I found the solution was to "edit the setperms script so all the chown 
entries come before the chmod entries and run it again." Then i ran 
setperms & like magic it worked for my special user 'user1"

thanks for all the help

old tony




my customers server will run filepro as root and see's all filepro files
but will not run filepro as user "user1" and cannot see filepro files.
any help would be appreciated
is this maybe some setting in linux?
thanks old tony

*filepro details:

*by saying cannot see filepro files i get the below error message:
           "There are no filePro files in
           //appl/cut/filepro/
          no such error when logged in as root

*fppath is:
        /appl

        /appl/cut

*from /appl/fp/lib/config :

      PFDSK=/
      PFEDFAILBOX=ON
      PFFORMTOKSIZE=150000
      PFHCFF=ON
      PFTMP=/appl/tmp
      PFTOKSIZE=200000
      PFVER=ON
      PFDATA=/
      PFDIR=/appl/cut
      PFMENU=/appl/cut/menus

*below script also works for root but as user "user1" the filepro files 
are not seen:

      clear
      echo "Select Desired Profile."
      echo
      echo
      echo "1) CUT ."
      echo
      read answer
      case $answer in
          # cut
          1)
          # CUT
          #PFPRTC=printwzc.prt
          #PFPRTC=printwiz.prt
          #ABE=ascii
          TERM=linux
          PFTERM=linux
          PFPROG=/appl
          PFDATA=/
          PFDIR=/appl/cut
          PFMENU=/appl/cut/menus
          PFDLDIR=/appl/download
          export PFPROG PFDATA PFDIR PFMENU PFDLDIR TERM PFTERM
          #export PFPROG PFDATA PFDIR PFMENU PFDLDIR TERM PFTERM
          p registr
