----------------------------------------------------------
I added a line in the su section to cd to $FUSEKI_HOME, which got me past that
problem.
Then I got errors logged that suggest that the subshell doesn't know about
FUSEKI_BASE; which makes sense since the environment is reset by the {{su -}}.
Adding explicit lines to set & export HOME & BASE in the subshell seems to have
fixed things.
Here's my final bit:
{noformat}
su - "$FUSEKI_USER" -c "
export FUSEKI_BASE=${FUSEKI_BASE}
export FUSEKI_HOME=${FUSEKI_HOME}
cd $FUSEKI_HOME
exec ${RUN_CMD[*]} &> '$FUSEKI_LOGS_STDERROUT' &
disown \$!
echo \$! > '$FUSEKI_PID'"
{noformat}
Also, removing the word {{exec}} doesn't seem to affect things negatively - the
disown does its thing. At least for me.
adding single quotes to the export'ed variables seems like it would be a good
idea.

> fuseki init script problems - FUSEKI_USER doesn't work - shell quoting wonky

> Key: JENA-1219
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-1219
> Project: Apache Jena
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Fuseki
> Affects Versions: Fuseki 2.3.1
> Environment: RHEL 6
> Reporter: Dan Pritts
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: etc-default-fuseki, shx-out.txt, stderrout.log
>
>
> another init script issue.
> If FUSEKI_USER is defined, the script attempts to su to that user. Here's
> the original code snippet.
> {noformat}
> su - "$FUSEKI_USER" -c "
> log_daemon_msg "Redirecting Fuseki stderr/stdout to
> $FUSEKI_LOGS_STDERROUT"
> exec ${RUN_CMD[*]} &> '$FUSEKI_LOGS_STDERROUT' &
> disown \$!
> echo \$! > '$FUSEKI_PID'"
> {noformat}
> There are several problems with this.
> 0) log_daemon_msg doesn't exist in this subshell so it throws an error. I
> filed a separate bug about this.
> 1) the quoting is problematic, so as written, it doesn't successfully start
> the software.
> I think what happens is that the double-quote before the word "Redirecting"
> closes out the argument to -c
> then the exec happens, but the FUSEKI_LOGS_STDERROROUT is not expanded
> because it's inside single quotes. So no log, or possibly there's a file
> sitting somewhere called literally $FUSEKI_LOGS_STDERROROUT - but only if the
> FUSEKI_USER has permissions to write in the current directory.
> Without the log file, I'm not sure why it doesn't start properly, i didn't
> troubleshoot further down this path.
> 2) Normally if you "exec" something, the exec'd program *replaces* the
> running process. Since the script has the & to background the process, it
> does that instead. Weird. It's counter-intuitive, though, and unless
> there's a good reason to have the exec I would suggest removing it. It seems
> like the subshell + background + disown should provide the functionality that
> you would normally expect from exec.
> I would suggest the following, but I'm not entirely sure of the design goal
> behind the code snippet so i am not sure it meets the needs.
> {noformat}
> su "$FUSEKI_USER" -c "
> echo Redirecting Fuseki stderr/stdout to $FUSEKI_LOGS_STDERROUT
> ${RUN_CMD[*]} &> $FUSEKI_LOGS_STDERROUT &
> disown \$!
> echo \$! > $FUSEKI_PID "
