[Genex-users] Re: Durga : change ownership ?

[Harry M. <hj...@ta...>]

which directory are you working out of?  it looks like you have checked the 
genex-server out 2 x, one in the other.

the file I referred to does not exist - did you just delete it?

# ls -l /home/kaddepal/genex-server/genex-server/DB/curated_data/role-db.xml

ls: /home/kaddepal/genex-server/genex-server/DB/curated_data/role-db.xml: No 
such file or directory

or did you get confused by which dir you were working in, as

/home/kaddepal/genex-server/DB/curated_data/role-db.xml

DOES exist.
