Splunk package error

[automagication]

Whenever I package the splunk app, I get execute permission error because I have 744 permission for conf files but splunk expects it to be 644.

With 644 permission I cannot package the app, is there any workaround for the same.

Below is the screenshot of the error.

Even untar and tar with different permissions, will not let me package because the permissions are 644, there is no execute permission

I followed the permissions from the list

No I use Linux ubuntu wsl on windows, I can set permissions correctly but the problem is with 644 permissions, I cant run slim package app-folder

Ubuntu on Windows is still Windows.  I had the same problem.  You have to use a real Linux box.

I'm guessing you're packaging the app on a Windows machine.  That will never work because Windows can't/won't set the file permissions correctly.  When I used to package on Windows, I would transfer the .tgz file to a Linux system, explode it, change the permissions, then re-tar it and transfer back to the Windows machine for uploading.

 I don't think this is the issue, I am  using linux
