Photo Mechanic 6 Permissions Issue
« on: March 28, 2019, 11:41:20 AM »
As part of our Photography Database cataloguing workflow, we have always used Photo Mechanic to ingest metadata into our assets when copying them over to our remote server. Never had any permissions issues until I recently upgraded to PM 6. Now I am getting the following permissions issue (see attachments), particularly when it comes to renaming the files. Also, I have root folders (dated, events, etc.) that get created but I am unable to delete from the volume b/c of permissions that didn't exist before in previous PM versions. I did notice that a new folder permission is set on our photography server during the ingest process that is identified as "photo_extensis1_s" which I hadn't seen before.

I am also see the issue as seen above.  PM6 MBP 10.14.3.  Is not consistent.  One card will have the issue and the next card will ingest.  Restarting the app works sometimes and sometimes it does not.

Hello I noticed that this thread is rather old and I was advised to open a new one which I'll Do.
I guess I am running in the same issue.

Has anybody fixed the issue ?
Thank you

No, we're unable to reproduce it with our servers.  If you can help us reproduce the problem then we should be able to fix it.
