mysql UDF : fopen = permission denied
- by lindenb
Hi All,
this is question I already asked on SO but I wonder if this could be a SysAdmin problem.
I'm trying to create a mysql UDF function , this function calls "fopen/fclose" to read a flat file stored in /data. But using errno (yes, I know it is bad in a MT program...) I can see that the function cannot open my file:
"Permission denied"
I tried to do a
chmod -R 755 /data (as well as 777, chown -R mysql:mysql /data etc...)
but it didn't change anything.
when I copied the flat file to /tmp : OK, my UDF was able to 'fopen' the file. I'm puzzled.
currently , I've got:
drwxrwxrwx 4 pierre root 4096 2010-05-26 16:51 /data
drwxrwxrwx 3 pierre root 4096 2010-05-18 09:41 /data/dir1
drwxrwxrwx 3 pierre root 4096 2010-05-18 09:41 /data/dir1/dir2
drwxrwxrwx 4 pierre root 4096 2010-05-18 10:27 /data/dir1/dir2/dir3
-rw-r--r-- 1 pierre root 50685268 2005-12-10 00:01 /data/dir1/dir2/dir3/myfile.txt
Any idea ?
