[Gnumed-devel] A problem (again) with backing up on Mac

[Busser, Jim]

I think I am again running into problems with permissions on Mac, in spite of 
having believed I had previously made adequate notes.

I had not so far done a backup under database v19, having left my .conf 
configured to v18 however I had backed up as recently as Nov 16 (I know … 
though I had done multiple drive imagings).

Anyhow, I could not again achieve to backup v18 in spite of trying to run the 
script in

        /etc

by any of the following methods ...

        as regular system user (djb)
        as sudo
        by use of su -i (opening a shell command to run as root)

with the target directory being

        /Users/djb/.gnumed/backup/

and the config already adjusted as previously learned, as better worked on Mac:

        # user/group the backup is eventually owned by
        # BACKUP_OWNER="$USER:$USER"
         BACKUP_OWNER="djb:djb"

and with the permissions in

        /etc/gnumed

being

        macbook:gnumed root# ls -al
        total 72
        drwxr-xr-x    8 root  wheel   272  9 Aug 23:03 .
        drwxr-xr-x  118 root  wheel  4012 27 Jan 22:15 ..
        -rwxr-xr-x@   1 root  wheel  6838 21 Oct  2011 gm-backup_database.sh
        -rw-r--r--@   1 root  wheel  5099 29 Jan 14:27 gnumed-backup.conf
        -rw-r--r--    1 djb   djb    5075 20 Oct  2011 
gnumed-backup.conf.example
        -rw-r--r--@   1 root  wheel  1552 23 Oct  2011 gnumed-restore.conf
        -rw-r--r--@   1 djb   djb    1517 20 Oct  2011 
gnumed-restore.conf.example
        -rw-r--r--    1 root  wheel    46  9 Aug 23:03 mybackup

The terminal output from my various tries is given below, between each of the 
pairs of =====.

At bottom is the listing of the files previously succeeded, and today failed, 
to be written not only by root but also by user db!

Not sure what I am missing!
