Package: motion
Version: 3.2.12+git20140228-8build1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I've tried using motion as a systemd service, the problem is that it seems to
die as soon as I start it. I suspect this the following things are stopping it
running correctly:
- the package doesn't set '/var/log/motion/' to be owned by 'motion', which
means the daemon can't write to its log file and dies
motion[26465]: [17281408] [EMG] [ALL] motion_startup: Exit motion, cannot
create log file /var/log/motion/motion.log: Permission denied
- the package doesn't set /var/run/motion to be owned by motion:
[14111104] [ERR] [ALL] [Dec 30 09:40:33] myfopen: Error opening file
/var/run/motion/motion.pid with mode w+: Permission denied
[14111104] [EMG] [ALL] [Dec 30 09:40:33] become_daemon: Exit motion, cannot
create process id file (pid file) /var/run/motion/motion.pid: Permission denied
- motion doesn't look for the configuration file /etc/motion/motion.conf, it
actually looks for /etc/motion.conf - I could resolve this with a symlink sudo
ln /etc/motion/motion.conf /etc/motion.conf
