Bug ID: 7763 Summary: ssl tests must be run as root Product: Spamassassin Version: SVN Trunk (Latest Devel Version) Hardware: PC OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Building & Packaging Assignee: dev@spamassassin.apache.org Reporter: fr...@morgul.net Target Milestone: Undefined Created attachment 5678 --> https://bz.apache.org/SpamAssassin/attachment.cgi?id=5678&action=edit spamd_tests_use_unprivileged_port.diff The tests in t/spamd_ssl.t and t/spamd_ssl_accept_fail.t run spamd with the default port configuration, which uses a privileged port and must thus be run as root. Aside from binding to port 783, there's nothing about those tests that requires privileges. We should consider switching to an unprivileged port. Either that or we should skip these tests when running as non-root, but that seems unnecessary. Proposed fix to trunk is attached. I'd apply something similar to the 3.4 branch as well. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
