This is because the default http port 80 is privliged. If you don't want to
run as root, reconfigure Orion to run on a non-privliged port such as 8080

Subject: orion on unix
Hi,
I used to run orion on NT machine and now I have to deploy it on a Sun Sparc
Solaris machine.
Honestly, my knowledge on unix system admin is very limited.
Ok, now I have this problem:
I have untar the orion archieve to a folder called orion, this folder and
all the files and subfolders under it are belongs to a user name 'orion',
the group access permission for this folder (and all it's files) are also
called 'orion'. When I log in to unix as user 'orion' and try to start up
the app server by typing java -jar orion.jar, I get a message "Error
starting HTTP-Server : Permission denied". I can only startup orion if I
log in as root user. This is not acceptable because I can't let everyone to
have root access just for starting up the orion server.(Our project still in
the development phase so we need to start and stop the server quite often)
I am puzzle with this error because I have already set the owner of all the
files under orion folder to be 'orion', and orion app server is using it's
own http-server internally so it shouldn't has any permission problem.
I think that orion app server might try to access some of the unix system
file which must have root access, if this is the case can someone tell me
which file it it?
Or is there any alternative work around for this problem?
Thanks and best regards
Lee
