failed to open stream

[StarLog]

I have just started to use weathermap, and while testing with the example.cfg I clicked the Node 1 to change the label to Switch-1.
This is the error I get:

Warning: fopen(configs/simple.conf) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /www/htdocs/plugins/weathermap/Weathermap.class.php on line 4405

I have changed the ownership to daemon, and still no joy.
How do I fix this.? Thanks

Fixed the permissions, and now it works.

I've added a note in the file-selector for the next release that says "read-only" next to files that you won't be able to edit.

Howie,

I found that if I created a NEW map with the editor, then I was the owner, and had to make no changes to the permission. At that point, I was able to edit and create the new map as i wished. Adding the note is a good idea.

Thanks

Yes, that would be true - those files were created by the same unix user that would be writing over them later. Unfortunately, there isn't really any clever way around this permissions stuff - it's just a side-effect of the way the two parts of weathermap are run (the editor and the poller).
