Dear group,
I am new to Portfile development and have a problem with permissions for users
and groups. At the moment I am trying to create a Portfile for Apache Tomcat 8.
I would like to run Tomcat as non-root with a user `tomcat` and group `tomcat`.
I am a bit lost.
set catalina_home ${destroot}${prefix}/share/java/${name}
set tomcat_user tomcat
set tomcat_group tomcat
add_users ${tomcat_user} group=${tomcat_group}
I saw these lines in some other ports, for example couchdb, and figured that is
the way to go even though I don’t find the macro add_users anywhere in the
documentation.
My destroot-phase currently looks like this:
destroot {
xinstall -m 755 -g ${tomcat_group} -d ${catalina_home}
file copy \
${worksrcpath}/LICENSE \
${worksrcpath}/NOTICE \
${worksrcpath}/RELEASE-NOTES \
${worksrcpath}/RUNNING.txt \
${worksrcpath}/bin \
${worksrcpath}/conf \
${worksrcpath}/lib \
${worksrcpath}/logs \
${worksrcpath}/temp \
${worksrcpath}/webapps \
${worksrcpath}/work \
${catalina_home}
xinstall -m 644 ${filespath}/setenv.sh
${catalina_home}/bin/setenv.sh.default
# replace @PREFIX@ to ${prefix}
reinplace "s|@PREFIX@|${prefix}|g" ${catalina_home}/bin/setenv.sh.default
# replace @NAME@ to ${name}
reinplace "s|@NAME@|${name}|g" ${catalina_home}/bin/setenv.sh.default
}
However `/opt/local/share/java/tomcat8` has the ownership `root:admin` and not
`root:tomcat`.
What am I missing?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
kind regards,
Björn
