perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Andrew Lake <>]

Hi,

Thanks for the report, that is not expected behavior. A quick look at the .spec file indicates that it *should* be getting set to the maddash user on install. It is possible something else is creating that file first and not setting the permission correctly...though it is not immediately obvious to me what that would be. I’ve created an issue for it here to track: https://github.com/perfsonar/maddash/issues/76. We will investigate and have a closer look. Due to travel schedules it may not be until next week sometime, so apologies in advance for any delay.

Also, on what operating system are you seeing this behavior?

 Thanks,

Andy

Hi, Are we supposed to need to "chown -R maddash:maddash /etc/maddash"?

It was the only way I could get the grid to populate.  On new setups, the perms are 'root:root', but I was having issues generating a new maddash grid, and I noticed this in the logs:

/var/log/maddash/psconfig-maddash-agent.log

Any ideas on what's going on?

Thanks
