http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30087 Solved: using su command in scripts to start Tomcat as non-root user Summary: Solved: using su command in scripts to start Tomcat as non-root user Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.0.25 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Blocker Priority: Other Component: Catalina AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Something in SuSE 9.1 changed so now the su command doesn't properly work unless you specify the shell using "-s /bin/bash" (or whatever shell you use). So older su commands like: "su myuser -c mycommand" had to change to "su -s myshell -c mycommand - myuser" The information from this link: http://ftp.lug.ro/suse/projects/apache/jakarta-tomcat/8.1-i386/jakarta-tomcat.changes gave me a clue as to why my script would not work when using the su command. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
