I've been playing with a rPi install now for almost a month & noticed something I don't quite get about the Linux file ownership.
Basically I started with a copy of my live data & changed the ini file to suit the Ecowitt.
Installed into /home/pi/CumulusMX Owner was pi.
What I noticed last week, is that the two new July data files had root as their owner & needed to change that to try an edit.
(Jul21Log.txt & the AirLink Log).
Is this what I should expect?
I'm not sure how it was running when the month rolled over as I've run it as a service at times & on other occasions started it with a script.
I've been referring to this https://cumuluswiki.org/a/MX_on_Linux & other pages, but don't see much reference to what happens regards new file creation under different conditions.
Trying to relate to to my Windows NTFS Permissions experience but not quit sure of the parallels.
Can someone try & put me on the right track & then I'll try & see how I can fit the answer into the Wiki.
Thanks
Phil.
Edit,
Just noticed ExtraLog202107.txt has now been created as I turned that option on.
It is owned by root.
It's data shows I turned the option on @ after 16:10 on 16/07 & at that time I would have started or had CMX running with this simple script.
Code: Select all
cd CumulusMX
sudo mono CumulusMX.exe
