Root Cause

The process does not have sufficient permissions to access the file or directory.

generic

中文

进程没有足够的权限访问文件或目录。

Workarounds

  1. 85% success 
    Check permissions before access: if fi, err := os.Stat(path); err == nil && fi.Mode().Perm()&0444 == 0 { return errors.New("no read permission") }
  2. 90% success 
    Use os.Open with proper error handling: f, err := os.Open(path); if err != nil { if os.IsPermission(err) { handle } }

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. 70% fail

    Security risk; not always possible.

  2. 90% fail

    File not read; logic breaks.
