arcpy file permission shutil copy

[NatashaManzuiga]

Hi all, I created a geoprocessing task and it perfectly works.
At the end I see that I have the same problem of this thread with arcgis server with linux:
https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/arcgis-server-on-linux-python-unable-to-change-file-p...
Does someone have the solution? Or I cant do anything to change the files permission from arcgis python?

Thanks,

Naty

What version of python are you using?

[NatashaManzuiga]

I'm using ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8 so I think:

• Python 2.7.16, NumPy 1.9.3, and matplotlib 1.5.2
• Python 3.6.9, NumPy 1.16.5, and matplotlib 3.1.1

both python versions have the "os" module, just check their version of "os" for exact syntax

python can change file permissions, if it is possible

[MarkKinnaman]

There are several ways to call chmod via python. You can use os.chmod() from os and you can use Path.chmod() from pathlib depending on personally preference. Also, if you only need to set the user permissions os and shutil have chown() functions.
