First try:

G:\Z-Test>luaotfload-tool  --diagnose=files.permissions
luaotfload | diagnose : Loading file hashes.
luaotfload | diagnose : Everything appears to be in order, you may
sleep well.

Well that's a comforting message ;-)

But if I correct the error (dot instead of comma in the list) I get
this (I replaced only my username). Remark the error at the end. The
result is similar with TL13):

G:\Z-Test>luaotfload-tool  --diagnose=files,permissions
