open a file - permission denied

I tried to open a file in this way

File.open(f_name, File::CREAT | File::RDWR) do |file|

end

Absolute file path is passed in as filename, such as filename is

/mounts/dd670-6.chaos.local/cifs/tfile6

Get the error message

Permission denied - /mounts/dd670-6.chaos.local/cifs/tfile6 (Errno::EACCES)

And, if I go into that directory and open that file, operation can be done successfully.

Anybody has any clue?

you can try change the perms before opening the file:

chmoded = 0
f_name = __FILE__
begin
    File.open(f_name, File::CREAT | File::RDWR) do |file|
    end
rescue => e
    File.chmod(0755, f_name) rescue nil
    chmoded += 1
    retry if chmoded < 2
    puts e.message
end
