Re: BUG #8493: Changing file permissions on all files during install

Hi

Installer does not change the permissions on all files.. it just changes
the permissions on the folders mentioned in the data directory path (except
C:\ and C:\Program Files).. It may be because of the inheritance that
icacls just scans through all the files..

Anyways, in 9.3.1, by default the installer will just try to grant
permissions on the data directory and not the whole path.. If someone wants
to enable that check on the complete path, he can do that via command line
switch "--enable_aclcheck 1"
