Not really :-)
But this time it looks like the UID switch causes the problem.
I have disabled this functionality and now its working.
I have changes this:
APIService.cpp
// run as nobody
#define ENABLE_NOBODY_no
// Add signal handler for SIGTERM
#define ENABLE_SIGTERM
// Add AIX SRC
#define ENABLE_AIX_SRC
static bool morph2daemon(void)
{
#ifdef ENABLE_NOBODY
// We start out with root privileges. This is bad from a security
perspective. So
// switch to the nobody user so we do not have previleges we do not
need.
struct passwd *pw;
pw = getpwnam("nobody");
if (pw != NULL) {
setuid(pw->pw_uid);
}
#endif
...
}
and
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
...
// run the server
#if defined(ENABLE_AIX_SRC)
if (run_as_daemon == false) {
printf("Starting request processing loop.\n");
} else {
(void) setsid();
#ifdef ENABLE_NOBODY
// We start out with root privileges. This is bad from a
security perspective. So
// switch to the nobody user so we do not have previleges we do
not need.
struct passwd *pw;
pw = getpwnam("nobody");
if (pw != NULL) {
setuid(pw->pw_uid);
}
#endif
...
}
With this changes I am back in business. Right now I have no idea why
the rxapi daemon does not work
when switched to nobody.
Any ideas ?
