The FGLDIR/lock directory
When using a local license, the license controller uses the FGLDIR/lock directory to store information (number of active users). A user running a BDL program must have access rights to this directory. Permissions can be restricted to specific users with FGLWRTUMASK.
This FGLDIR/lock directory must have access rights for any user running a BDL program. If it does not exist, it is automatically created.
The FGLDIR/lock directory is not used when Genero is configured to use a license manager.
By default, the FGLDIR/lock directory is created with
rwxrwxrwx rights, to let any user access the directory and create files. To
restrict the access to a specific group or user, use the FGLWRTUMASK environment
variable to force fglWrt to use a specific mask when creating the lock
directory:
$ FGLWRTUMASK="022"; export FGLWRTUMASK
The FGLWRTUMASK environment variable must be set for all users executing BDL
programs, because the FGLDIR/lock directory can be re-created by any user at
first BDL program execution.
