Summary: Running httpd returns the error "bad user name nobody"
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.2.9
Platform: Other
OS/Version: AIX
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: All
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Environment: Apache httpd 2.2.9
OS: AIX 5.3 64 bit
Running httpd returns the error "bad user name nobody". The User and
Group directives in the httpd.conf have nobody and nobody. I can rlogin
to this machine as the user nobody without problems. The uid and gid of
nobody are the default AIX values given below. httpd works fine on other
AIX machines with the same uid/gid. Even on this machine, if I change
uid/gid to some smaller number it works. However, as per AIX docs
4294967294 is a valid id.
bash-3.00# cat /etc/passwd | grep nobody
nobody:!:4294967294:4294967294::/:
bash-3.00# cat /etc/group | grep nobody
nobody:!:4294967294:nobody,lpd
