Synced folder permissions problem in macOS Sierra

[tomascohen]

There's a bug in Sierra's NFS server that makes the synced folder permissions be wrong and cause trouble (notably when developing plugins).

I file this issue for informational purposes because we expect people to be hit by this problem.

When I use kohadevbox on my Mac I find that synced folders don't work unless I explicitly use SYNC_REPO with "vagrant up." Is this related?

[tomascohen]

@oleonard, that's the way it works. I have it set on my .bashrc file to avoid forgetting it.

Issue #191 could make it possible to just define that in the config file

Sorry I should have been more specific: I have it in .bashrc too, but it still doesn't work unless I use SYNC_REPO. Sounds like it's a problem with my setup though.

I just installed a 100% clean install of Sierra. I had initially run into the problem but I fixed it by:

1.) Since ~/.bash_profile doesn't exist by default on a Sierra install I ran touch ~/.bash_profile.
2.) I added the export SYNC_REPO line to the blank ~/.bash_profile.
3.) Ran source ~/.bash_profile
4.) Then I ran just vagrant up without SYNC_REPO in the call and it worked perfectly.

Note that I only have ~/.bash_profile created and not ~/.bashrc. I don't know if it's related to the @oleonard problem, but I know that bash reads from .bash_profile before .bashrc. Hope this helps!
