My application on the server wants to copy a file from a remote directory mounted by sshfs to a local directory. The application code:

shutil.copy('/data/somdir/somefile.txt','/var/www/App/localfolder' )

The permissions of /data is as follows:

drwxrwxrwx 1 1027 root 4096 May 6 10:16 data

So every user(including Apache) should able to access the folder, but in the logfile I get:

IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied

Some edits and updates on my question:

I set allow_other when mounting via SSHFS, and all the directories along the path to the source file have permissions of at least 755.So any use has read access to it.

  • How about the permissions of files inside /data? Commented May 15, 2016 at 4:19
  • first of all, are you copying whole folder /data ? Commented May 15, 2016 at 5:18
  • no, jsut some specific files in /data/somedir. but all these folders have r+x permissions. Commented May 15, 2016 at 12:36

mount with option allow_other.

If you rely on these permissions being enforced, add the option default_permissions.
