>Number: 5271 >Category: os-linux >Synopsis: initgroups() returns an error to error_log >Confidential: no >Severity: critical >Priority: medium >Responsible: apache >State: open >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: apache >Arrival-Date: Mon Nov 8 14:10:01 PST 1999 >Last-Modified: >Originator: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Organization: apache >Release: 1.3.6, 1.3.9 >Environment: Linux, Slackware 4.0, Slackware 7.0, kernel 2.3.26, kernel 2.2.13, egcs-1.1.2. glibc-2.1.2, libc-5.4.46. >Description: I've compiled both apache 1.3.6, and Apache 1.3.9, on my machine, to use PHP-4.0B2 with it. Compiles clean, installs clean. When I run 'apachectl start', I get the following:
[Sun Nov 7 21:17:55 1999] [notice] Apache/1.3.9 (PHP4.0B2) configured -- resuming normal operations [Sun Nov 7 21:17:55 1999] [alert] (22)Invalid argument: initgroups: unable to set groups for User nobody and Group 449967254 [Sun Nov 7 21:17:55 1999] [alert] (22)Invalid argument: initgroups: unable to set groups for User nobody and Group 449967254 [Sun Nov 7 21:17:55 1999] [alert] (22)Invalid argument: initgroups: unable to set groups for User nobody and Group 449967254 [Sun Nov 7 21:17:55 1999] [alert] (22)Invalid argument: initgroups: unable to set groups for User nobody and Group 449967254 [Sun Nov 7 21:17:55 1999] [alert] (22)Invalid argument: initgroups: unable to set groups for User nobody and Group 449967254 [Sun Nov 7 21:17:55 1999] [alert] Child 11987 returned a Fatal error... Apache is exiting! >How-To-Repeat: recompile apache, witht he same setup, as above. glibc-2.1.2 as the main library, and recompile apache, using libc-5.4.46. Same error occurs, on both. egcs-1.1.2 or probably even gcc-2.7.2.3. Either, should give the same error. >Fix: initgroups() in http_main.c, line 3018, >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: [In order for any reply to be added to the PR database, you need] [to include <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> in the Cc line and make sure the] [subject line starts with the report component and number, with ] [or without any 'Re:' prefixes (such as "general/1098:" or ] ["Re: general/1098:").
