Must restart service after every minor change

Post by cjard »

Hi there

I configured a permissions of R---L--- on one of my accounts, logged in, tried to nav to a sub folder, permission denied.. Oops, forgot the Inherit. Added Inherit permission. Still couldnt navigate. Stopped/restarted service. Could navigate

Must I restart the service after every trivial change? This is very frustrating..

Let me know if you cannot reproduce the issue.. I can reproduce it reliably here.

I made a user with NO INHERIT permission on the root folder.
User cannot navigate to a sub folder
I edited the permissions to YES INHERIT
Click OK, Click OK
User still cannot navigate to sub folder
Restart service
User can now navigate to sub folder

Would you like me to provide you with a video of this, or will you just test it at your end to reproduce it?

I have run into this issue as well. I added a new folder and forgot to add permissions. After starting the server, I tried to get into the folder with Core FTP and obviously couldn’t get in. Then I added the permissions and still could not get in to the folder. After Stopping and restarting the Server, it worked.

Just curious - Did you logout/login before you retried to access the folder or changed permissions and retried from the same session?
