Asking about the permission inherit from the parent directory
Asking about the permission inherit from the parent directory
I am running the web app with tomcat8, I did use umask 007 to set permission for folder which enable the sub files and folder inherit the permission from the parent directory, I was successful which some directories but the directories under the tomcat8/webapps did not inherit the permissions. Could you please suggest me other ways?
For example :
Sucessfull
Code:
cd /usr/local/
umask 007 folder1
chgrp -R tomcat8 folder1 
chmod -R g+s folder1

cd /usr/local/software/
umask 007 backupfolder
chgrp -R tomcat8 backupfolder 
chmod -R g+s backupfolder

umask 007 folder2
chgrp -R tomcat8 folder2 
chmod -R g+s folder2

This one is failed
Code:
cd /var/lib/tomcat8/
umask 007 webapps
chgrp -R tomcat8 webapps
chmod -R g+s webapps

I set the permissions before running script to deploy the web app under tomcat8.
After running the script, it copy some files and directories to the folder1, folder2, backupfolder with the same permission with but it doesnt work with the tomcat8/webapps directory. Could anyone help me? Thank you!

umask(2)							System Calls Manual							  umask(2)

NAME

       umask - set and get file creation mask

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       sets  the  process's  file mode creation mask to cmask and returns the previous value of the mask.  Only the file access permission bits of
       the masks are used.

       The bits set in cmask specify which permission bits to turn off in the mode of the created file, and should be specified using the symbolic
       values defined in stat(5).

EXAMPLES

       The  following creates a file named in the current directory with permissions so that the file can be written only by its owner, and can be
       read or executed only by the owner or processes with group permission, even though group write permission and all  permissions  for  others
       are passed in to

RETURN VALUE

       The previous value of the file mode creation mask is returned.
