Bugzilla – Bug 3358
postinstall scriptlet only partially honours SLIMSERVER_USER
Last modified: 2009-01-29 09:46:49 UTC
Hi folks, when upgrading, the changed value for the user gets used only in the preinstall scriptlet, not in the postinstall scriptlet. The offending line is: # Now that everything is installed, make sure the permissions are right chown -R slimserver.slimserver /usr/local/slimserver It should use the value in /etc/sysconfig/slimserver. Output: Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:slimserver warning: user slimserver does not exist - using root warning: group slimserver does not exist - using root ########################################### [100%] chown: `slimserver.slimserver': invalid user Point your web browser to http://blackbird.layer-7.net:9000/ to configure your server. Additionally it would be nice to be able to set the group as well, but that's definitely very low priority. Cheers, Micha.
Dan, is this fixed?
Dan says this one has been fixed.
Actually, I didn't - it needs to be, but is low priority.
Fixed in change 8590
