We are running Linux Linux xxxxxxxxxx.xxx.com 2.6.32-504.12.2.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Feb 1 12:14:02 EST 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
We are also using Collabnet - SubversionEdge: Information Software version 3.2.1-3360.104 Subversion version 1.7.7-3360.104 Over the weekend out techgroup rolled out a patch that apparently included an Apache update. Many of our directories and files under /svn/cnsvnedge Were owned by apache , group apache This was especially true under /svn/cnsvnedge/data - where the repositories live, and /svn/cnsvnedge/conf where config files live. During the patching the permissions to all of these were set back to a level where only apache could run them, but cnsvnedge runs as webadm on our box. As a result we were not able to start SubversionEdge using 'csvn start'. I was logging into the server with my private account and doing a sudo to apache before trying to start the service. This has worked numerous times in the past. Here is how it goes: cd /svn/cnsvnedge sudo -u apache bash export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/default bin/csvn start I get this error and it quits /sbin/runuser: cannot set groups: Operation not permitted Our techgroup was able to reassign groups and permissions to directories and files to at least start Edge and eventually allow write access to our repos. But this runuser issues persists so our standard shutdown/startup procedures do not work anymore. Any help would be appreciated on what Apache did to us and how to get things back to normal.
