Re: HELP: Tomcat 5.5.9 with jsvc as low priviledges user on Linux fails in Bootstrap

2005-08-04 Thread Rainer Jung

CVS head now includes an improvement:

1) If the directory containing tomcat-users.xml is not writeable you 
will get a nice warning instead of a strange exception.
2) You can configure the MemoryUserDatabase with the attribute 
readonly=true. Then there will be not write attempt at all.


Details under

http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36020

Will be included in 5.5.11 most probably sometime during august.

chown -R root:root /usr/local/tomcat/common

This is not right - looks like the bootstrap is trying to access the 
Realm and there is no write access to the conf/tomcat-users.xml file. I 
can't believe the common-daemon not tomcat side didn't say a thing about 
this, I bet there are others experiencing the matter.
Do i have to disable Tomcat realms ? It doesn't sounds right. There is 
no way I'd give others write access on that.


Looking forward to hear from you if you experienced something similar.
Thanks,
MC

This smells like its calling for write access to the DIRECTORY  
/usr/local/tomcat/tomcat_home/conf/  (not the file)


Unless you have a left over file that is actually called 
conf/tomcat-users.xml.new from a previous execution of TC that did not 
complete the edit and rename.  In which case I think you need to delete 
the conf/tomcat-users.xml.new file (after you've ensured you have a 
valid and working conf/tomcat-users.xml file itself).



FYI - I run jsvc too and have not seen this problem with 5.5.9.

jsvc.exec -Djava.endorsed.dirs=./common/endorsed -classpath 
:/opt/jakarta-tomcat-5.5.9/bin/bootstrap.jar:/opt/jakarta-tomcat-5.5.9/bin/commons-logging-api.jar
