Running Opensbc as non-root user


Hi. Does anybody have tried to run opensbc with -u and -g command line switches?

I tried but I'm getting the following error:

sftswmty01:/usr/src# /usr/src/opensbc/obj_linux_x86_r/opensbc -u opensbc -g opensbc -d -p /var/run/opensbc/opensbc.pid
Daemon started with pid 2157

Hi,

Sorry for the late response. Just create a folder under your $HOME/OpenSIPStack and give your user read/write permission to it. In your case it is /root/OpenSIPStack

Re: Running Opensbc as non-root user

Hi. I had already made that part:

sftswmty01:/home/opensbc# ls -la
total 28
drwxr-xr-x 3 opensbc opensbc 4096 2008-09-19 22:49 .
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 2008-09-19 22:22 ..
-rw------- 1 opensbc opensbc 308 2008-09-20 00:27 .bash_history
-rw-r--r-- 1 opensbc opensbc 220 2008-09-19 22:22 .bash_logout
-rw-r--r-- 1 opensbc opensbc 414 2008-09-19 22:22 .bash_profile
-rw-r--r-- 1 opensbc opensbc 2227 2008-09-19 22:22 .bashrc
drwxr-xr-x 3 opensbc opensbc 4096 2008-09-19 22:49 OpenSIPStack

But it seems that the problem is with the "opensbc" binary, I guess the opensbc is looking for the env variable HOME and it is because is trying to look for the config and log files at the root directory.

Is this a bug?

Regards

Re: Running Opensbc as non-root user
Try running opensbc with -f switch and point it to a preexisting directory which your user has read/write access to.

./opensbc -f /root/OpenSIPStack/OpenSBC_data

if that does not work for you please resend your log.
