IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied even though all file permissions are enabled

I was attempting to run an IDA plugin called Karta through Cygwin's CLI and I kept on getting the error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "karta_analyze_src.py", line 310, in
main(sys.argv[1:])
File "karta_analyze_src.py", line 303, in main
analyzeLibrary(constructConfigPath(library_name, library_version), bin_dirs, archive_paths, prompter)
File "karta_analyze_src.py", line 106, in analyzeLibrary
archive_files = list(locateFiles(bin_dir, filter(lambda x: x.endswith("." + bin_suffix), getArchiveFiles(compiled_ar)) if not ignore_archive else None, bin_suffix))
File "C:\Users\wyin\Documents\Karta-master\src\ar_parser.py", line 10, in getArchiveFiles
ar_fd = open(ar_path, 'rb')
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'C:/Users/wyin/Documents/cryptopp820'

I looked at my file permissions for C:/Users/wyin/Documents/cryptopp820 and i saw that I had every permission already enabled.

What I can I do to resolved this error?

it seems like its trying to open the directory in python and that causes the error

Sorry for the delay in the response. It looks like there might be a mixup in the CLI arguments that are passed. Could you please list the full command you are using?

My guess is that a directory is passed instead of the path to the archive file, which caused this issue.

Being inactive, I'm closing this ticket. If there error persists (even when passing the CLI arguments correctly), feel free to re-open this ticket.
