I have a problem with an application developed in python using the django framework, it uses the FPDF library to export a file which is then used by the application to attach it to an automated email.
When this app exports the PDF and saves it to the media directory, the file doesn't inherit permissions from its parent directory and only has read/write permissions, this doesn't allow Django to find the file so it can be attached to the mail.
I was searching on the internet and found people with the same problem, they were recommended to use the ACL configuration to manage default permissions, I tried many times with different methods but it did not work. I don't know what I could have done wrong (I kept having the same error). Dfter having made the ACL configuration the files continued to be exported with the same permissions and when applying the command chmod 777 -R * these did not change their permissions, I had to disable the ACL configuration for it to allow me to apply that command.
This is the error that appears:

Possibly try executing the command as root?
CodePudding user response：
Can you check if the path which is being accessed is correct. As per the permissions of the files inside media folder, every user has read permission, and you are trying to read a file (in binary form).
This error (FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'media/PaySuppiler--27022022142925.pdf') shows that path is not correct. Try using relative path based on the file e.g os.path.join(os.path.realpath(file), "../media/PaySuppiler--27022022142925.pdf")
