Hi Alexandre,
During influxdb installation, the following warning is displayed:
[…]
Warning: The home dir /var/lib/influxdb you specified can't be accessed:
No such file or directory
[…]
The root cause is pretty obvious, adduser tries to set influxdb user
home before it ever exist. There are many ways to fix that issue, for
example we could create the necessary directory before calling adduser
in the post-installation script, removing the “--no-create-home” from
adduser call, etc. In the attached patches, you’ll see that I chose
another solution that involves using debhelper’s facilities.
Additionaly, you’ll find patches (0003* and 0004*) handling
/var/log/influxdb creation using the same method.
Thanks for maintaining influxdb!
Cheers,
Vincent
