Linux parent directory permissions affect subdirectory file operations
The following shows that tomcat made an error when deleting the document whose owner is itself, prompting Permission denied.
This is because the user tomcat does not have w permissions in the parent directory permissions of the document. Although tomcat is the owner of the document, Deleting the document is also a modification to the parent directory, so if the user does not have the w permission of the parent directory, it will prompt that the permission is insufficient
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 21 21:02 tomcat drwxr-xr-x. 13 root root 4096 May 30 21:42 usr drwxr-xr-x. 19 root root 4096 Jul 15 02:29 var [root@wang ~]# touch /tomcat/xxx [root@wang ~]# chown tomcat:tomcat /tomcat/xxx [root@wang ~]# ll /tomcat/xxx -rw-r--r-- 1 tomcat tomcat 0 Nov 21 21:03 /tomcat/xxx [root@wang ~]# su - tomcat [tomcat@wang ~]$ rm -rf /tomcat/xxx rm: cannot remove `/tomcat/xxx': Permission denied [tomcat@wang ~]$
Modify the permissions of the parent directory and give the w permission to the user tomcat
[root@wang tomcat]# chmod 757 /tomcat
As can be seen from the picture below, the user tomcat has w permissions on the parent directory/tomcat of the xxx document, so the deletion was successful
drwxr-xrwx 2 root root 4096 Nov 21 21:03 tomcat drwxr-xr-x. 13 root root 4096 May 30 21:42 usr drwxr-xr-x. 19 root root 4096 Jul 15 02:29 var [root@wang tomcat]# su - tomcat [tomcat@wang ~]$ rm /tomcat/xxx [tomcat@wang ~]$ ll /tomcat/ total 0 [tomcat@wang ~]$
You can also directly transfer the owner of the parent directory to tomcat. The fastest way is here. I used recursion, but I can actually do it without it
[root@wang tomcat]# chown -R tomcat:tomcat /tomcat
