Hi all,

I have a web application(java 5, mysql server) installed on Tomcat on Red Hat 5.

Part of the functionality is to allow the upload of files to a windows share. I have mounted the share using the following command.

mount -t cifs //iedev196/sharedDocs -o username=xxx,password=xxxxxx,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 /mnt/shareddocs

Any file I create here from the terminal gets full write permissions.
"-rwxrwxrwx"
The problem is that when the application server creates the file it gets created with the following.
"-rw-r--r--"

How can I get files created from the server to be "-rwxrwxrwx"

Regards
Darran

Solved this.

The jvm process was what created the file. This was running as root user.
The tomcat server was running as tomcatuser

When i ran tomcat as root I could overwrite the originial file.
