Mac OS X Server, File Sharing, Permission

0

I’m trying to use Mac OS X server Mavericks in a small team within my organization. I was able to successfully install and setup the server, which resides in a local network. I did the following setup:

  1. Open Directory Setup
  2. File Sharing, /Users, available for home directory over AFP
  3. Created Network users with home folder pointing to /Users
  4. Bound Clients to the server
  5. XCode Server Setup with git repository

Users now can login using their own account and their home folder is loaded from the server. Unfortunately there are issues. Clients are having permission issues, which we have never encountered on local machines before we switched to using XCode Server. Here is a list of some of the issues so far.

  • Xcode issues on client computer:
    • When creating a XCode project, it reports the error "Couldn't not find build module Drawin" when clicking create button. I found online a workaround fix that supposedly works, which is to set "Enable Modules (C and Objective C)" to No. But we didn't have to do this before using XCode server.
    • When committing to git repo, the following error happens: "fatal: Repository has been updated, but unable to write to new_index. Check the disk is not full or quota is not exceeded, and then "git reset HEAD" to recover". Another work around we found online is to do on the client, cp index backup ; mv backup index

We don't want to have to do this every time we create a project; what could be wrong with the setup?

StackOverflow is about coding. Lord knows we all have headaches with OS X server, but this is probably best asked in SuperUser or AskDifferent. – JakeGould – 2014-04-25T03:06:29.767

I'm really surprised that Even apple support have no clue. Sound like Max Os X server is not that way go. – user519274 – 2014-04-30T23:51:44.790
