vi is not working as normal user
Hi,
I am unable to create/open any file in vi editor for normal user, though using root I am able to create/open any file, using redhat 5.5, example vi test it showing nothing after entering command |
Showing nothing - as in the command prompt hangs?
|
it is showing just like below
[test@test123 ~]$ vi test [test@test123 ~]$ |
What happens if you use the full path, e.g. ?
Code:
$ /usr/bin/vi -V test |
Issue resolved
change the /var/tmp to 777 permission

And if you do want to contribute make sure your solution is correct! Both /tmp and /var/tmp should be 1777 and not 777!! |
Hi druuna
If you had know solutions one year why can't you updated ? I had to search for 15 mins. 777 works fine for me. And I do n't want other to search and waste 15 mins of time as this is the 1st result for vi editor with such problem. Please note people looking into forum when the face issue not every time like you and find fault for no reason Regards Vinodh |

The permissions on both directories are 1777. This is default/mandatory! Quote:
