[smolleyes]

hi

i run my app thru pm2, no problems to start andrun the app BUT

i have to write and read files froms one dir wich has specific permissions (on linux)

my pm2 run as user "webuser" so i added this user to the same group of my dir where i have to write files...

i still have Error: EACCES: permission denied on mkdir or fs.readdir ...

even if i change the dir permissions to 0777 i still have this error !!! :/

an idear ?

thanks

Having the exact same issue here, a script ran with node and pm2 by the same user fails to access a folder that is accessible to that user. The problem happens only when running the script under pm2.
ps -aux shows the node fork started by pm2 running under the correct user, but still I get EACCES errors.

Our problem ended up the fact that permissions have changed after the pm2 daemon has been launched. The user that pm2 was forking processes under was not listed in the new group it has been added to for the current instance of the daemon.

What solved the issue was running pm2 kill, and relaunching all the processes monitored by pm2 (and thereby the daemon itself).

That way the newly added group membership of the operating system user and all of its' consequences regarding permissions were applied.
