Hi all,
So, I've never done any serious deployment, am doing some test now,
and have some problems. They seem to be, surprise surprise,
permissions related. Maybe somebody could point out what I am doing
wrong; point out what is the standard, tested, working and
sanctioned setup...
Problem:
App seems to crash (or simply not start up) at times. Well, this
might or might not be fixed, since I've been fussing around a bit
and have yet to see how this is affected. My bigger problem was that
when looking for logs trying to determine why the app was down, I
found nothing, which didn't help determine the problem.
SiteConfig:
<application>
...
<macOutputPath>/Library/WebObjects/Logs/</macOutputPath>
</application>
<instance>
...
<outputPath>/Library/WebObjects/Logs/AppNameInstanceNumber</
macOutputPath>
</application>
Permissions:
Every folder in /Library/WebObjects has permissions:
Owner: appserver, read-write
Group: appserveradm, read-write
Others: read
Does everyone have execute on the directories?
wotaskd is starting up under root. Should I change that to
appserver? That seems to be at least a part of the logging problem.
Yes, it should run as appserver unless you are on 10.3.
Also, could the logging / permissions mess be related to the apps
not starting?
Yes, if it can't create the log file and write to it, the app will
just die.
