Lost access to my folder

Hi,

I seem to have lost access to one of my sub directories. /home/<user>/<foldername>

Also a scheduled task running in this folder is not running due to "No permission". I lost access to the entire directory when fixing this.

Could you help me fix this issue?

What is the output of:

ls -ld /home/<user>/<foldername>
ls -l /home/<user>/<foldername>

Hi glenn, output below :

ls -ld /home/<user>/<foldername>

d-wx-wx--x 5 pramodshandilya registered_users 4096 Sep 2 06:03

ls -l /home/<user>/<foldername>

cannot open directory '/home/<user>/<foldername>': Permission denied

Looks like you need to do:

chmod +r /home/<user>/<foldername>

and then

ls -l /home/<user>/<foldername>

again to see what's going on in the folder.

Ok that seems to have fixed the issue. The always-on task is also running now after I modified the folder permissions. Thanks!

Glad to hear that you made it work!
