Domtool sets up Apache to log to AFS. See ~adamc/apache for an example of the directory layout and permissions.
Right now, Domtool expects these 'apache' directories to be subdirectories of users' home directories. I set this convention back when we weren't giving users write permissions on their home volumes, but rather doing this for 'home' subdirectories. Since we've reversed this decision, it's important that Apache logs go somewhere that users don't have write access to. This is because deleting a virtual host's log directory will lead to Apache encountering a file-not-found error when it goes to open the logs, stopping Apache from starting up. Following the way we're handling databases, I'm guessing that the consensus will be that Apache logs should get their own per-user volumes, and that these volumes will be created by adduser. Does that sound like the right thing to do? This log directory business is the last remnant that I can think of of the old AFS conventions with /afs/hcoop.net/usr/USER/home home directories. Has anyone else spotted any others? _______________________________________________ HCoop-SysAdmin mailing list [email protected] http://hcoop.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hcoop-sysadmin
