Ubuntu 20.04 + Jenkins - access denied and directory does not exists

  • 772

I have VSP with Ubuntu 20.04 and Jenkins installed on it. Also have a Java Maven test project which should run as Jenkins job. Few hours ago everything worked well. Then I added one new feature to the Maven project and changed chmod permissions to allow write for groups to the directory where Maven stores the result. And then it crashed. So I tired to set all permissions to 777 but it did not fix the problem. I don't understand how is it possible if all permissions are 777 and it still throws an error permission denied with directory does not exists. Here is the console log:

##/home/vlado/selenium-tests/test-1 - is the Maven project directory with chmod 777

I dont understand two lines of it:

java.nio.file.AccessDeniedException: /home/vlado/selenium-tests/test-1
and
/home/vlado/selenium-tests/test-1 does not exist

Can somebody tell me please what happened there. Thanks a lot.

  1. So the problem was not in the permissions of project directory but in the permissions of parent directory which missed x perm for others. I don't understand how it happened.
