Hello
I do not know if I am on the right mailling list for this problem.
Here the problem with start-stop-daemon.
On my package tango on mentors, I need to start a service.
this one need a connection to mysql.
so I uses dbconfig to generate the /var/lib/tango/.my.cnf mode(600) for
a tango (system) user :
tango:x:114:123:Tango Server,,,:/var/lib/tango:/bin/false
All this is ok after the first installation.
In the /etc/init.d/tango-db I have :
DAEMON = /usr/lib/tango/tango5/database
DAEMON_OPTS = "1"
NAME = tango-db
echo -n "Starting $DESC: "
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --chuid tango:tango --background
--make-pidfile --pidfile /var/run/$NAME.pid \
--exec $DAEMON -- $DAEMON_OPTS
echo "$NAME."
but when I start the daemon, it try to connect as root and not as tango
user. what is wrong with --chuid.
(the code of the daemon use a NULL identifier for the user in the
mysql_real_connect method so the mysql connection must use the current
user, I check this by starting the daemon from root and from my
personnal account and it works. The first time it tries to connect as
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and the second times as [EMAIL PROTECTED])
Did I miss something with start-stop-daemon?
thank you and sorry for the noise if it is not the right mailling list.
Frederic
Ps: even worse
in an xterm
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$su root
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~#invoke-rc.d tango-db start
It tries to connect to mysql as [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED]
in a tty:
after login as root the same invoke-rc.d try to connect as [EMAIL PROTECTED]
