Shyamal Prasad updated CASSANDRA-3198:
--------------------------------------
Attachment: debian-postinst-fixperms.patch
I believe this is the correct patch. It sets permissions on first install, or
failing that, when upgrading from earlier than 0.6.4-2 per CASSANDRA-1004
> debian packaging installation problem when installing for the first time

> when installing cassandra through the debian packaging for the first time,
> there is permission problem when starting Cassandra.
> Normally, the postinst script change owner of /var/log/cassandra and
> /var/lib/cassandra from root to cassandra user.
> there is a problem with the test which verify if threre is a need to change
> the owner of these directory or not.
> On a new install, the $2 parameter is not set and the the test is false and
> the owner is not changed.
> (simply, i think replace "&&" with "||" might work)
