Hello,

I assume you mean the SIPp Webfrontend. Instead of running apache as root
you could also use sudo to run SIPp as root. This should be done in
exec_call.php (function execute_background on line 165). The difficulty is
then to find out the correct process id of the SIPp process.

Regards

Betreff: Re: [Sipp-users] SIPp GUI access to raw sockets Ubuntu


Hello All,

A few weeks ago I posted a problem with the SIPp GUI not able to play
media via a .pcap file. I saw the error "Can't create raw socket (need
to run as root?)."

The problem is Apache not running as root. To resolve the issue I
manually compiled Apache, PHP and MySQL.

When compiling I used Apache use command :-

env CFLAGS="-Wall -DBIG_SECURITY_HOLE" ./configure -

http://httpd.apache.org/dev/apidoc/apidoc_BIG_SECURITY_HOLE.html

***** Then set Apache to run as root

cd /usr/local/apache/conf/
vi httpd.conf

***** Change user and Group

User root
Group root

Please note I am doing this on a laptop used as a tester, this is only
used on a lab networks there are big security issues doing this on a
device facing the big wide world.

Hopes this helps someone,

Jimmy
