Hello,
Commit 7a18b250b07ff4ed0c34fa48e69029c114ec3ab1 introduced the check on
ownership & permission of the config file so that it doesn't log/display
the diff it the config file is not readable by all.
Here it is checking the stat for source. But source is always the temp
file which is created based on the config file content received from the
Server and it is always under root ownership and not readable by all.
Thus for all config files which are not owned by root or are readable by
all, the diff result is not displayed. Instead there is the message
"Differences exist in a file that is not readable by all. Re-deployment
of configuration file is recommended"
Attached is the proposed patch to check the stat of dst i.e the file
present on the system. With this change, for the files which are
readable by all the actual diff result would be displayed.
Regards,
Paresh
