Item13838: Need to use filetest access when testing for files not writable.
Priority: Normal
Current State: Closed
Released In: 2.0.3
Target Release: patch
Applies To: Engine
Component: Configure
Branches: master
Follow-up from
Item13631.
Permission checking on AFS file systems needs to
use filetest 'access';
for more accurate results.
There is one place still using the access bits -
Foswiki::Users::Password.pm
However this is called for every transaction, and filetest 'access' is lower performing.
