Bugs: AMBARI-16413
    https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-16413


Repository: ambari


Description
-------

AMBARI-16413: Ambari server does not start because of permission issues on 
symbolic links

** Issue **

When setting up ambari-server with a non-root user, ownership change on various 
log files and other files do not work when those files are in a symbolic linked 
folder.

** Fix **
When doing a chown -R <folder>, specify the -L option to traverse every 
symbolic link.

** 2. Manual testing **
Set up a VM and copy the changed os_linux.py script fromt the build to the VM. 
Run the following commands:
rm -rf /var/log/ambari-server
mkdir /tmp/log/ambari-server
cd /var/log
ln -s ambari-server /tmp/log/ambari-server

Run ambari-server setup and use a non-root user. Verify that the permissions on 
/var/log/ambari-server and it's contents now have the non-root user as the 
owner.

Run ambari-server start and verify that it was successful.


Thanks,
