[jira] [Commented] (DAEMON-178) jsvc process does not take the umask of the running user. It is always 077

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAEMON-178?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13128233#comment-13128233 ] 

Michael Osipov commented on DAEMON-178:
---------------------------------------

Cannot this be make easier by providing simply a -umask option in the jsvc binary? It is cumbersome to recompile the binary over and over again.

>          Components: Jsvc
>    Affects Versions: 1.0.3
>         Environment: Ubuntu Hardy 8.0.4, jdk1.6.2
>            Reporter: J Miller

> 1) create a simple implementation of the Daemon interface that writes "hello world" log files
> 2) compile jsvc as described in the documentation
> 3) verify that your linux user has umask != 077, by typing "umask"
> 4) start jsvc with all the required CP args as described in the documentation
> 5) look the log file permissions
> Expected: The permissions are not 700.
> Actual: They are 700.
> 6) Modify commons-daemon/src/native/unix/native/jsvc-unix.c, replacing 077 with 022
> 7) recompile jsvc
> 8) repeat 4-5
> Expected: The permissions are 755.
> Actual: The permissions are 755.
> Conclusion: The jsvc process uses a hard-coded value, instead of adopting the running user's umask, as expected.
