Most of the documentation is in that RFE...


"#542 Support non-root interpreter installation and execution on Unix-like 
systems"
https://sourceforge.net/p/oorexx/feature-requests/542/


Specifically changing on of the ooRexx source files:

rexxapi\server\platform\unix\APIService.cpp

// For testing purposes comment out the following line to force RXAPI to
// run as a foreground process.
#undef RUN_AS_DAEMON

#ifdef RUN_AS_DAEMON
#define OOREXX_PIDFILE "/var/run/ooRexx.pid"
bool run_as_daemon = true;
#else
#define OOREXX_PIDFILE 
"/kunden/homepages/35/d157794216/htdocs/opt/oorexx/var/run/ooRexx.pid"
bool run_as_daemon = true;
#endif


Then building and installing from the patched source.

My organization standard was to in my home directory build an opt/ directory, 
then package names as the next level... and to consider that directory as the 
virtual root. Thus .../var/run/ right where 
ooRexx wanted to place its PID file in the first place.

I am thankful,
