Different file rights/owner

Hello,

At some point the owner of the files changed:

-rw-rw-r--   1 root      jetbrains 8388608 Dec  2 11:24 0000013mo00.xd
-rw-rw-r--   1 root      jetbrains 8388608 Dec  2 11:24 0000013n000.xd
-rw-rw-r--   1 root      jetbrains 8388608 Dec  2 11:31 0000013n800.xd
-rw-rw-r--   1 jetbrains jetbrains 8388608 Dec  2 11:31 0000013ng00.xd
-rw-rw-r--   1 jetbrains jetbrains 8388608 Dec  2 11:31 0000013no00.xd
-rw-rw-r--   1 jetbrains jetbrains 8388608 Dec  2 11:31 0000013o000.xd

After updating to the latest version, some files now have read-only permissions:

-rw-rw-r--   1 jetbrains jetbrains 8388608 Dec 15 15:38 00000178g00.xd
-rw-rw-r--   1 jetbrains jetbrains 8388608 Dec 15 16:42 00000179o00.xd
-rw-rw-r--   1 jetbrains jetbrains 8388608 Dec 15 17:30 0000017ao00.xd
-r--r--r--   1 jetbrains jetbrains 8388608 Dec 16 07:33 0000017bo00.xd
-r--r--r--   1 jetbrains jetbrains 8388608 Dec 16 07:34 0000017c000.xd
-r--r--r--   1 jetbrains jetbrains 8388608 Dec 16 07:34 0000017c800.xd

Is this a normal situation or did something go wrong?

Hi!

I'm Sergey from the YouTrack team.

No, that's not normal if you expect to update data under the jetbrains user. In general, I'm afraid this forum is not the best place to learn about how to manage file ownerships and permissions in your system. I suggest looking up various instructions and topics related to OS management like https://serverfault.com/questions/619722/how-do-i-detect-what-is-changing-file-ownership-on-linux.

Hi!

The question is not how to change the owner or rights to files, but why new files have such rights and why the owner of the files is different.

Yes, that's the whole point. This is not something we can retrieve from the YouTrack app side. You should investigate it within your system: how you launch the process, which user it is under, how you manage the directories and so on.

We use Docker image, no one makes changes manually inside the system, this is clearly something internal.
