[jira] Commented: (CHUKWA-104) Chukwa data collection depends on the permission of the log file

["Jerome Boulon (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CHUKWA-104?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12697100#action_12697100 ] 

Jerome Boulon commented on CHUKWA-104:
--------------------------------------

-1 forcing 644 is not the right way to do it

 here what I think about setting permission in Chukwa Appender:

- use log4j to set permission to the log file, ex: log4j.appender.CHUKWA.readPermission=
-- readPermission field not present in log4j, don't do anything, file permission will use the default
-- readPermission field set to "All" then setReadable(true, false) otherwise setReadable(true, true)
-- writePermission field not present in log4j,  don't do anything, file permission will use the default
-- writePermission field set to "All" then setWritable(true, false) otherwise setReadable(true, true)

> In ChukwaDailyRollingAppender, the appender should set the file permission to be readable by ChukwaAgent.  In this release, we are setting it to 644 to be sure that the log file can be collected by ChukwaAgent.
