'Permission Denied' error on YQ script during upgrade or installation due to NOEXEC on Volume Mount
Overview of the Issue
This issue occurs in the following circumstances:
- An organization attempts to install or upgrade a vFunction Server
- The installation or upgrade script generates an error:
../opt/vfunction/server-installation/utils/yq: Permission Denied
- The user who is running the script has ownership of the vFunction Directories and YQ script
- The YQ script has 777 permissions, or at least the ability to be executed
- Unexpectedly, running the command mount shows that the location where the YQ script exists has noexec set to prevent scripts from running. For example
/dev/nvme0n1p16 on /data1 type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,seclabel)
Steps to Resolve the Problem
Take the following steps to change the Mount where vFunction will be / is installed to allow the Installation / Upgrade script to run as well as the YQ script. Note that this modification will not persist through a reboot and a more permanent change should be made to this setting.
In this example /app/docker is used as the new default Docker root directory. Replace this directory with your actual location in the steps below.
### Replace $NAME_OF_MOUNT with the actual name, such as /data1 from the example above
mount -o remount, exec $NAME_OF_MOUNT
