v1.0-2 admin server as non-root user?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Has anyone been able to install the admin server as a non-root user?  With a 
fresh install, not an upgrade, if I try to use a non-root user "ldapas" 
instead then the admin server refues to start and leaves a cryptic error 
message in the logs. Any suggestions?

$ setup/setup
...
Can't start Admin server [/opt/fedora-ds/start-admin > /tmp/file2dDMoZ 2>&1] 
(error: No such file or directory)
You can now use the console.  Here is the command to use to start the console:
cd /opt/fedora-ds
./startconsole -u admin -a http://straylight.ensenda.com:16116/

INFO Finished with setup, logfile is setup/setup.log
[/opt/fedora-ds]$ lsl -ad .
drwxr-xr-x  15 ldapas ldapas 4096 Dec  6 13:12 ./
[/opt/fedora-ds]$ sudo ./start-admin
[/opt/fedora-ds]$ telnet localhost 16116
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused
[/opt/fedora-ds]$ tail admin-serv/logs/error
[Tue Dec 06 13:14:06 2005] [crit] host_ip_init(): PSET failure: Failed to 
create PSET handle (pset error = )
Configuration Failed

[/opt/fedora-ds]$ grep ldapas /etc/passwd
ldapas:x:101:102::/opt/fedora-ds:/bin/bash


On a side note, is there any reason not to use the standard redhat "ldap" user 
instead of "nobody" for the default suggested slapd user?  My impression was 
that "nobody" should not own any files on the filesystem.
