I have a plugin that must read some files every X minutes (this plugin is running under user1), those files belong to user2 (from another application), the structure is something like this:

drwxr-xr-x. 2 user2 5536 4096 sep  2 11:09 directory1
#Inside this directory, it contains some files:
-rw-r--r--. 1 user2 5536  0 mar 10  2020 file1
-rw-r--r--. 1 user2 5536  0 mar  8  2018 file2

When I run the plugin, it does not let me access these files, it is returning this error:

check your filesystem (permissions/usage/integrity) and disk devices

Changing the owner of the directory and the files is not an option (because those files are used by another application).

I also tried to change the permissions of those files to 777 but it returns the same error.

EDIT: Creating a group and including both users is not an option, because it could generate problems with one of the applications.
