Hi there,
I am developping under Runtime Revolution to run applications on a small mix network (PCs and Macs). Common files (serving as database) are accessed from standalone application running either on PCs or on Macs.
My problem is that when a Windows (beaaark) user access a common file, it takes possession of the file, changing the access privileges, and Mac users cannot access the file anymore since the file owner became the PC owner name and the read/write privileges become “none”… whatever we do.
I am thus trying to run a AS script in order to recover the original access privileges (owner and permissions)… but I get an error message since the owner has changed and it seems that I cannot change the owner from Appelscript…
The “set owner of… to…” returns a error message “You don’t have enough privilieges bla bla bla.”
Of course I can do it by hand in the “Info” window, but it does not serve le good…
Any idea ??
