Category: Windows Group: Python 2.5 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 7 Submitted By: Yi S. Ding (yi_ding) Assigned to: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Summary: os.access reports incorrect write permissions in Windows Initial Comment: Platform: Python 2.5b1 Windows XP Bug: os.access will report that a user doesn't have write permissions to a file or directory when the user actually does. Reproducibility: always This is being run on an administrator account. >>> import os >>> os.access("C:\\", os.W_OK) False >>> os.access("C:\\test.txt", os.W_OK) False I have also checked that Python can indeed write to the file. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Yi S.

Basically, there's a double ampersand used instead of a single ampersand in posixmodule.c. I've attached the patch. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Neal Norwitz (nnorwitz) Date: 2006-06-27 22:28 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=33168 Does this problem only occur with 2.5 or is it also present in 2.4? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1513646&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
