When I create a .sddraft it by default gets Owner's read and write permissions. I think I need execute permission for creating .sd file. I am using Python and my file resides in LINUX server.

you must have write permission to the directory to create a new file.– ZoltanDec 14, 2015 at 19:28

Did you install server as root?– risailDec 14, 2015 at 19:29

When you create a file in linux ownership is going to be assigned to the creator. You need to change ownership or add your user to a common group in order to publish the sddraft.

I am working as an owner group and I already changed the file permission of folder manually but when I creates a new .sddraft it only gets read and write permission from parent folder.– MehreenDec 14, 2015 at 19:33

Thats correct you draft is going to be read and converted with
arcpy.StageService_serverare you unable to run it?– risailDec 14, 2015 at 19:35 -
yes I was thinking it might need execute permission. can we change permissions in python?– MehreenDec 14, 2015 at 19:36

no and you don;t need to... Publishing services is a three step process
arcpy.mapping.CreateMapSDDraft()thenarcpy.StageService_server()and finallyarcpy.UploadServiceDefinition_server()you only need to be able to read the draft file it is not an executable file type– risailDec 14, 2015 at 19:39 -
yes! i am trying the same steps but I was getting an error "Consolidating the data failed". I was thinking File permissions are the last option toward the service definition file.– MehreenDec 14, 2015 at 19:41
