[jira] [Commented] (AMBARI-20324) Wrong permissions on /var/run/ambari-server when not running as root

["Björn Busse (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-20324?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15899327#comment-15899327 ] 

Björn Busse commented on AMBARI-20324:
--------------------------------------

It seems the directory gets created via
ambari/ambari-server/src/main/python/ambari_server/serverConfiguration.py:430:          os.makedirs(directory, 0755)
invoked by
ambari/ambari-server/src/main/python/ambari_server/serverConfiguration.py:384:    self.check_if_directories_writable([self.OUT_DIR, self.PID_DIR])

By the time the (init-) process is still running as root. One possibility would be to chown() the dir to the ambari-user after creation of that dir

> /var/run/ambari-server has wrong permissions when not running as root.
> The user under which ambari-server is running (ambari-server.user) should own /var/run/ambari-server
> $ cat /etc/ambari-server/conf/ambari.properties | grep server.user
> ambari-server.user=ambari
