Lin Cong commented on AMQ-9690:
-------------------------------

I followed the instructions from 
[https://activemq.apache.org/components/classic/documentation/unix-shell-script 
|https://activemq.apache.org/components/classic/documentation/unix-shell-script]to
 run ActiveMQ as a Unix daemon on both RHEL and Ubuntu. One of the steps 
involves running {{chown -R activemq:users apache-activemq-<version>}} before 
starting the broker to manually change the owner of the 
{{apache-activemq-<version>}} directory.
If this step is skipped, the files under {{apache-activemq-<version>}} will all 
be owned by root. Wondering how only the {{data/}} subdirectory under 
{{apache-activemq-<version>}} has a different owner than the rest. 

> activemq always creates the data directory as root when run as an init.d 
> service

>             Project: ActiveMQ Classic
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Distribution
>    Affects Versions: 6.1.6, 5.18.7
>            Reporter: Rod Allen
>            Priority: Minor
>
> when following instructions from 
> [https://activemq.apache.org/components/classic/documentation/unix-shell-script]
>  to create an init.d or systemd script, the function in the main activemq 
> will create the data directory as the root user even if user is specified in 
> the env/setenv and copied to /etc/default/activemq. This can be seen on any 
> RHEL 8 like Linux such as Rocky Linux 8. Follow the steps in the linked 
> article, delete the $ACTIVEMQ_DATA directory and the service script will 
> create the directory as root but cannot be written to as the non-root user so 
> the service cannot be stopped. Workaround of course is to just manually 
> create the data directory.
