Even though I have admin rights, I continue getting permission denied errors when writing to the files inside my chocolatey python installation. Why, how can I fix that?
PermissionError: [WinError 5] Access is denied: 'c:\\tools\\python\\lib\\site-packages\\pip-6.0.8.dist-info\\description.rst'
Somehow the SYSTEM user was assigned owner of the folder, and permissions were set in a way that prevented access, changing of the permissions, etc.
The solution was to reassign ownership of the folders to the Administrators group/user/whatever. Then I was able to change things. Weird Windows world of permissions.

I'm installing Google Cloud SDK from my terminal.
Then, I got an error when I typed ./install.sh.
It shows
WARNING: Could not setup log file in /Users/myname/.config/gcloud/logs, (Error: Could not create directory [/Users/myname/.config/gcloud/logs/2022.06.18]: Permission denied.
Please verify that you have permissions to write to the parent directory..
The configuration directory may not be writable. To learn more, see https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/configurations#creating_a_configuration
Though I clicked "Yes" in Do you want to help improve the Google Cloud CLI (y/N)?
It still shows [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Users/myname/.config/gcloud'
Does anyone meet the same issue? I've found some solution on Stackoverflow and other websites, but none of them are useful for me.
I had this issue. I solved by:
Open Finder
CMD+SHIFT+G
Input ~/.config
If gcloud directory does not exist, create it.
Right Click gcloud directory > Get Info > Sharing & Permissions > Give "Read & Write" to all levels.
I do not know if this is safe, but it allowed installation to complete.
Not certain if this belongs here or on SU
I'm developing a Django app and I'm having a problem with logfiles. I have a logger configured to write to /var/log/django/django.log. When I try to start the server, I get a 500 error, and the error log says
ValueError: Unable to configure handler 'djangologfile': [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/log/django/django.log'
"httpd/error_log" 480L, 61112C
The permissions for both django.log and the django directory are 777. Why can't the server write to the file?
Well, the easy way to test this is to sudo as a user the server is running under and try to ls /var/log/django/django.log. If that fails you might get insight into what the problem is.
trying to download the source code from gae developer account.
appcfg.py download_app -A appname /"my folder"/path/appname
When I download the app, it gave me this error:
2013-03-11 14:37:53,807 ERROR appcfg.py:1791 Couldn't create directory "/path-to-folder/admin": [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/path-to-folder'
How to fix this problem?
Edited: Nevermind, I logged in to root and fixed it.
Check if the folder where you try to place the app, has the right permissions set.
I have a wxPython app that writes user data to the Users folder at close. In most cases it works fine. However, I get some error reports from users that the app cannot write to the Users/username folder.
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: u\'C:\\Users\\usersname\\AppData\\Roaming\\app\\data.dat\'
What situation can cause a user not to be able to write to their own user folder? Does the user not always have read/write permissions to their own Users/username folder? How can I compensate for this issue?
Thanks.
A possible reason is that the file is locked. In this case you have no permission to write to the file until it is released.
Are you sure you don't lock the file somehow yourself?!
I'm getting the following error when trying to create a simple db with Django. I'm the only user on this computer, so I should be an admin. How do I make it so that I have permissions so that Django can just do its thing?
here is some more of the error:
[Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Users/tyre77/.python-eggs/simplejson-2.1.6-py2.7-macosx-10.7-intel.egg-tmp/simplejson/tmpUxM60A.$extract'
The Python egg cache directory is currently set to:
/Users/tyre77/.python-eggs
Perhaps your account does not have write access to this directory? You can
change the cache directory by setting the PYTHON_EGG_CACHE environment
variable to point to an accessible directory.
Files seem to be owned by root, and members of group staff do not have the rights to write into those files/directories and you're not root.
Try to change the owner of those files : sudo chown -R tyre77 /Users/tyre77/.python-eggs/
Maybe you've installed the module with a sudo command, so the files were created with the root privileges.
