[opencms-dev] Scheduled Job - java.io.IOException: Permission denied when writing file

[Martin.Rosenthal at oerag.de]

Hello,

i've created a Java-Class which is writing a file in filesystem. It's a
simple method using

File file = new File(variable with filename);
file.createNewFile();

The class i'm using as a scheduled job in OpenCMS. On a Windows System it's
working fine and a file is generated. But on an AIX Unix System System i
get an Java exception

java.io.IOException: Permission denied
        at java.io.File.createNewFile(File.java:894)
        at de.mwsg.cms.modules.competition.CompetitionDatGenerator.launch
(CompetitionDatGenerator.java:53)
        at org.opencms.scheduler.CmsScheduleManager.execute
(CmsScheduleManager.java:176)
        at org.quartz.core.JobRunShell.run(JobRunShell.java:203)
        at org.opencms.scheduler.CmsSchedulerThread.run
(CmsSchedulerThread.java:123)

But the directory folder, in which the file should be written, has
permissions for all users to read, write and execute files in it. I think
the users, under which the scheduled job is executed should be the same as
the user of the application server in which OpenCMS is running. Is this
right? Are there some special conditions to be regarded under Unix?

Thanks and regards,
Martin Rosenthal
