Mladen Turk commented on DAEMON-178:
------------------------------------
Added support to specify the umask at compile time.
Eg.
make EXTRA_CFLAGS="-DJSVC_UMASK=022" will use umask(022)
It is even possible to
make EXTRA_CFLAGS="-DJSVC_UMASK=002"
In that case the following will appear in the log:
NOTICE: jsvc umask of 002 allows write permission to group and/or other
This is similar technique Apache suexec is using.
> jsvc process does not take the umask of the running user. It is always 077

> Key: DAEMON-178
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAEMON-178
> Project: Commons Daemon
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Jsvc
> Affects Versions: 1.0.3
> Environment: Ubuntu Hardy 8.0.4, jdk1.6.2
> Reporter: J Miller
>
> 1) create a simple implementation of the Daemon interface that writes "hello
> world" log files
> 2) compile jsvc as described in the documentation
> 3) verify that your linux user has umask != 077, by typing "umask"
> 4) start jsvc with all the required CP args as described in the documentation
> 5) look the log file permissions
> Expected: The permissions are not 700.
> Actual: They are 700.
> 6) Modify commons-daemon/src/native/unix/native/jsvc-unix.c, replacing 077
> with 022
> 7) recompile jsvc
> 8) repeat 4-5
> Expected: The permissions are 755.
> Actual: The permissions are 755.
> Conclusion: The jsvc process uses a hard-coded value, instead of adopting the
> running user's umask, as expected.
