Compile permission error

[Pyvonix]

I find a very specific problem related to permissions due to the MR #694

Error:

Error compiling CSS package "bootstrap"

Command:
/usr/bin/sass /home/user/my-project/static/bootstrap.scss /var/www/my-project.com/static/bootstrap.css

Errors:
[Errno 13] Permission denied: '/home/user/my-project/static/tmp75g2esr9'

Related code (pipeline/compilers/__init__.py ):

project_infile = finders.find(input_path)
outfile = compiler.output_path(infile, compiler.output_extension)
outdated = compiler.is_outdated(project_infile, outfile)
compiler.compile_file(project_infile, outfile,

Investigation:
If I run the project as www-data (uwsgi context) and not as user, who owner of the repertory /home/user/my-project/. When permissions 644 are recursivly apply on my user repertory, pipeline (as www-data) try to create a "temporary file" (tmp75g2esr9) and that is not allowed.

Solution:
May be we can generate the temporary file (project_infile) in /tmp? which would be more adequate?

Hi, I have this exact problem. Is there any solution to this?

Hi @D-Pavlov,

My monkey solution (for the moment) was to manually rollback to have the old behavior how doesn't generate temporaries files. I will work on a more general fix soon.

Hi @TheBuky,
Thank you for the quick reply!
Turns out I don't get the error if I use 'pipeline.storage.PipelineStorage' instead of 'pipeline.storage.PipelineCachedStorage', so I'll roll with that for the time being.
Maybe this information can be useful to you, maybe not 😄
Anyway, thanks again, cheers!
