-----------------------------------
Summary: Calling SUDO to remove temp cfg file failed
Key: AIRFLOW-4087
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-4087
Project: Apache Airflow
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Junda Yang
At Lyft we use a non-root user (named *airflow* in our case) to run airflow
worker and we keep getting emails saying that the user is not in sudoers so the
command to remove temp airflow.cfg failed.
{code:java}
Mar 13 21:22:33 : airflow : user NOT in sudoers ; TTY=unknown ;
PWD=/srv/airflowinfra ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/bin/rm /tmp/tmpgzw8eaww
{code}
I found that the error was generated due to
[https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/5a303ebbc572cee7c9c30be84ebf625357360d4b/airflow/task_runner/base_task_runner.py#L155-#L160]
Not having enough context, is there any reason airflow needs to run sudo to
remove the file? If not, I think it should be safe to remove the sudo, because
the temp file is owned by the same user who runs worker command.
