Hi

The problem i have is that on linux, the flv files generated by fms are having permission 660. Due to this they become kind of useless as i cant do much with them. Is there a way to make fms generate streams with better default permision ?

Any help is appreciated..

    Hi Rajdeep,

    When you make a file or directories under any directory the default permission for them will be determined by your umask setting.

    You can edit the umask setting. It is called environment variable. You set it like you set any env variables such as:

    umask=666
    export umask

    You'll see the file permission is different.

    Also if you dont want to do above then after generating streams you can run the command recursively to change the permissions, you will need to do chmod -R 777 <folder name> command (-R says to do it recursively). So all the files and folder will take 777 permissions under the directory specified in the command.

    Regards,

    Amit
