[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBPORTAL-1515) Execute permissions removed while building the jboss-portal src distro

Fri Jun 29 18:23:57 EDT 2007

    [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPORTAL-1515?page=comments#action_12367365 ] 

Rajesh Rajasekaran commented on JBPORTAL-1515:
----------------------------------------------

tarfileset has an attribute called filemode where you can set the permissions of the files that go into the tar.

I have used <tarfileset prefix="${portal.release.normal.name}-src" filemode="755" dir="${portal.build.src}"/> in distrib.xml to build the src tar.

But this feature is available only in ant 1.7 and i used it just to build the src tar for this release.

> A temporary copy of the portal src is made to the build/output directory before the src distro is created.
> This ant copy task in distrib.xml removes all execute permissions on .sh files, the ant executable packaged etc.
> Trying to build from the src distro says
> [rrajasekaran at dev03 build]$ sh build.sh
> build.sh: *WARNING* Ignoring environment value for $ANT_HOME
> build.sh: *FATAL* Ant script is not executable: /home/rrajasekaran/jboss-portal-2.6-CR3-src/tools/bin/ant
> The ant manual says
> "Unix Note: File permissions are not retained when files are copied; they end up with the default UMASK permissions instead. This is caused by the lack of any means to query or set file permissions in the current Java runtimes."
> Either the build needs to be modified or i can try something with the UMASK settings while building.
