[issue7367] OSError [errno 13] permission denied

New submission from Jay Lugo <jacewickman [at] gmail>:

I spend the better part of a day figuring out this relatively simple
problem with the help files in IDLE with python 2.6 on a mac OSX

I came about the solution by following the code errors all over
up and down the program files.

Eventual I came about the public folder ex..
Users/ME/Public

I spent time looking through the properties and settings tabs editing my
firewall settings and file sharing options (I reverted them when i fixed
the problem)
but i ended up removing all file sharing settings anyway.

I simply right clicked on the public folder and my permission was set
to "Write only(Drop Box)"
a simple change to "Reed and Write" fixed the IDLE error.

Hope i just saved some one some time.

Ned Deily <nad [at] acm> added the comment:

Can you be more specific about how to reproduce the problem you saw?
Also, which version of Python were you using? Please copy the information
from the the first line of IDLE's Python Shell window, like so:

Python 2.6.1 (r261:67515, Jul 7 2009, 23:51:51)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646)] on darwin

Python 2.6.4
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5493)] on darwin

>From the best I can tell the error came about
when I updated my firewall/shared folder settings.
(I lost a computer on my home network due to my partner leaving me :( )
so I did a complete revamp of my network to close up any holes
and Bam no IDLE.

The solution as I said came about from simply changing the user access
on the public folder in User/ME/

I initially came across the error when attempting to get a modules list
and was returned a list of errors. One of them was the [errno 13].

Hope that clears things.
