Hi  
I have a GIT repository and try yo download my project files from there. When i run the sync in the awx project i get this error and not sure what it is:

Traceback (most recent call last): File “/opt/rh/rh-python36/root/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/awx/main/tasks.py”, line 1135, in run self.pre\_run\_hook(self.instance) File “/opt/rh/rh-python36/root/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/awx/main/tasks.py”, line 1902, in pre\_run\_hook self.acquire\_lock(instance) File “/opt/rh/rh-python36/root/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/awx/main/tasks.py”, line 1870, in acquire\_lock self.lock\_fd = os.open(lock\_path, os.O\_RDWR | os.O\_CREAT) PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: ‘/var/lib/awx/projects/\_16\_\_docker\_keys.lock’

SCM credentials are ok, I am using a SSH key.

Any suggestions?

Thanks  
daniel

It looks like either your permissions are wrong on the filesystem or you have mounted a drive that’s not mapping permissions correctly.
