Description

We get ERRORs for SP 22.1.5 util sp step "8. Extract products updates" (see Additional Information below for an example). 

Resolution

There were many files and directories under /exlibris/product that had crn like owner; it must be aleph.  Changing the owner to aleph/exlibris (using the chown command) corrected the problem.  (util SP-8 then ran without error.)
