Hi Juha


On my host the access permissions were

apple-pip:javascript christopherlamb$ cd  
/Users/christopherlamb/QTProjects/landed/landed26_QT5/landed26_QT5/qml/javascript
apple-pip:javascript christopherlamb$ ls -ahl
total 72
drwxr-xr-x  7 christopherlamb  staff   238B 22 Feb 22:01 .
drwxr-xr-x  9 christopherlamb  staff   306B  8 Feb 19:57 ..
-rw-r--r--  1 christopherlamb  staff   4,1K 22 Feb 22:01 jsonpath.js
-rw-------  1 christopherlamb  staff   349B  8 Nov 15:56 landed.js
-rw-------  1 christopherlamb  staff   1,1K 11 Feb 19:33 message.js
-rwxrwxrwx  1 christopherlamb  staff   9,4K 22 Feb 19:47 readDataModel.js
-rw-r--r--  1 christopherlamb  staff   5,2K  8 Feb 17:29 writeDataModel.js


I am not sure why the files on my host have such wildly different  
permissions. This probably reflects the different ages / sources of  
the files. Until now the permissions set on the host was not an issue  
I had to think about.

I have now done a chmod 777 *.js


That got me a little further, it next complained about missing qml  
files, so we have a similar issue with the permissions of .qml files.

Having gone through all my qml file in the project on my host with  
chmod 755 *.qml the project now deploys successfully to the device.

So it looks like, that (at least on OSX) the permissions of files on  
the host are important and need to be set correctly as expected on the  
end device. Something for the known issues page?
