Temporary Directory Is Created As root Without Write Permissions

[kiler129]

Either I'm doing something really dumb, or RunAs plugin is unusable when you need to use temporary directory. The directory is created as root:root with 755 permissions, which makes build impossible to save anything.

Work directory is also inaccessible, so running e.g. php composer produces:

[14:16:12]	[Step 2/2]   [RuntimeException]                                                                                        
[14:16:12]	[Step 2/2]   /opt/jetbrains/TeamCity/buildAgent/work/f613c80626aaf1ff/vendor does not exist and could not be created.

@kiler129 could you provide more details. Steps to reproduce, build log file might be really helpful

I have the same issue using the latest nightly build
Flink_Build_3.log

I have the same issue. I'm running my build agent as root, and relying on the runAs plugin. It appears that the temp directory under the build agents working directory (~/BuildAgent in my case) is deleted and recreated after every build. However, it is created using 755 permissions. This causes builds to fail if they require access to the temp directory while using the runAs feature.

In my case, also the fact the git checkout is done as root was a problem. As a workaround I've configured the build to use a fixed directory (e.g. /home/teamcity/example), created a script with "chown -R user. /home/teamcity/example", added "user ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /path/to/the/script.sh" to /etc/sudoers, and added "sudo /path/to/the/script.sh" as the first build step.
