I’ve installed pgbouncer on CentOS7 and it’s reliant upon a .pid file: 2020-07-31 04:58:34.082 EDT [3682] DEBUG parse_ini_file: 'logfile' = '/var/log/pgbouncer/pgbouncer.log' 2020-07-31 04:58:34.082 EDT [3682] DEBUG parse_ini_file: 'logfile' = '/var/log/pgbouncer/pgbouncer.log' ok:1 2020-07-31 04:58:34.082 EDT [3682] DEBUG parse_ini_file: 'pidfile' = '/var/run/pgbouncer/pgbouncer.pid' 2020-07-31 04:58:34.082 EDT [3682] DEBUG parse_ini_file: 'pidfile' = '/var/run/pgbouncer/pgbouncer.pid' ok:1
However the service isn’t starting because the ownership of the parent directory, pgbouncer:pgbouncer results in some permissions issues: 2020-07-31 04:58:34.089 EDT [3682] FATAL could not open pidfile '/var/run/pgbouncer/pgbouncer.pid': Permission denied /var/run/ has special flushing behaviour which I want to retain, but I need to get around this permission issue. Changing ownership on this directory just results in an automatic ownership set by the service, so that’s not an option. - Is there another location that can achieve this? - Is there any other way to solve this? I can’t find anything online, other than the same permissions issue for .pid files in this location.
