anyone familiar with ubuntu?

i was programming a c file,

messing with fopen w


now the whole folder that contains all my c files, and the file I wrote to with the program, will not open.

any clues?

Can you navigate your way there through the command line via commands like "cd" and "ls" ?

You can't use fopen() with directories, so I guess it's just a problem with permissions.

Who is the owner of the directory? What are the permissions of the directory?

If you're having trouble getting access to the directory, manually set owner and group to yourself and change permissions so you're able to change to the directory:

Code:

---

sudo chown <your_username>:<your_group> <dir>
sudo chmod 700 <dir>
