PM99228: Auto Save is disabled for directory with special permission

Rational Rhapsody 8.0.5
Rational Rhapsody 8.0.6

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Description
  -----------
  Please find a video capture that shows the behavior on getting
  the pop-up after the set interval time - 'No write permission
  for auto save directory Auto save - disabled'. Also, the
  Project_auto_rpy gets deleted on accepting the pop-up.
  
  The behavior captured is working as designed and it?s
  understood, as the files are explicitly made read-only. However
  on having a Folder or directory set with 'special permission'
  rights(screen shot attached to see the special permission), the
  behavior is observed with files 'not set as read-only'.
  
  This seems a defective behavior as the changes are lost on
  accepting the pop-up. It might also be the case of special
  permission not supported currently.
