I am using collectd to collect system metrics. It is collecting data at /var/lib/collected/csv/ with root privileges. I am running collectd as a part of a larger automation framework, which is written assuming it has root access to /var/lib/collectd/csv folder. Unfortunately, I am not in a position to change the framework and it's failing to manipulate the folders. How can I work around the problem by perhaps letting collectd collect data w/o root privs?
BaseDir \"/var/lib/collectd\"
PIDFile \"/run/collectd/collectd.pid\"
Interval 1.0
LoadPlugin cpu
<Plugin cpu>
ReportByState true
ReportByCpu true
ValuesPercentage true
</Plugin>
... (more plugins ...
LoadPlugin csv
<Plugin csv>
DataDir \"/var/lib/collectd/csv\"
StoreRates true
</Plugin>
Even if I change the base directory privs to admin, it doesn't help, since new data gets written w/ root privs.

I have Artifactory 6.20.1 running in a Docker container. I'm trying to install the artifactCleanup plugin (https://github.com/jfrog/artifactory-user-plugins/tree/master/cleanup/artifactCleanup)
I have put the artifactCleanup.groovy file in the corresponding folder:
$ ls -all /opt/jfrog/artifactory/var/etc/artifactory/plugins/

However if I'm trying to see my loaded plugins I get an empty response
curl -X GET -u "admin:password" http://localhost:8081/artifactory/api/plugins
{}
The Server has been restarted before running that request. All commands have been running inside the Docker container. I have been looking at the documentation (https://www.jfrog.com/confluence/display/JFROG/User+Plugins) on how to install plugins. My User account which was used for the rest calls is an admin account.
Now I am out of clues, why that plugin is not loading?
You can use the below reload plugins using the Reload Plugins REST API endpoint.

Please comment here if you are running into any issues.
Turns out I created a wrong directory. Correct directory is
/var/opt/jfrog/artifactory/etc/plugins
which already existed.
I have a Synology Diskstation DS216se running DSM 6.2.3-25426. I've installed MariaDB 10, Web Station, PHP 7.2, and myPhpAdmin, but when I open it at http://diskstation/phpMyAdmin/ I get this error message
"Sorry, the page you are looking for is not found."
I'm using an nginx server in Web Station, and the error log at /var/log/nginx/error.log contains multiple entries like the following
*621 open() "/var/services/web/phpMyAdmin/js/vendor/jquery/jquery.debounce-1.0.5.js" failed (13: Permission denied)
The file, and all other files with permission denied entries in the logs, exist in the /var/services/web/phpMyAdmin/ directory - what permissions need to be granted to the directory for this to succeed?
I hit this as well. I managed to recover, but it effectively amounts to hard clearing any evidence of prior installs of Web Station, PHP 7.2, phpMyAdmin, and any other web related services. Then manually ripping out some bad directories with broken symlinks/permissions.
My hypothesis is that I tried to install adminer prior to this and - having not done any set up for Web Station et. al. - it put the filesystem in a bad state.
I am not willing to try installing adminer again to test this hypothesis.
What I did to fix this:
Backup what you need (e.g., any personal web site).
SSH into your diskstation. Please be aware of what you are doing and keep in mind the big picture. Don't go deleting random things.
Uninstall Web Station, PHP 7.2, Apache, phpMyAdmin, etc. Anything that Web Station would ultimately be inclined to read and serve up.
Verify that /var/services/web doesn't contain anything you care about, and delete it (sudo rm -rf /var/services/web).
Verify that /volume1/web doesn't contain anything you care about, and delete everything inside it (sudo rm -rf /var/services/web). You may need to chmod permissions for this - I ended up leaving the web directory itself intact, but nothing inside.
Reboot. Mount any encrypted disks, etc.
Check that /var/services/web now shows it is symlinked to /volume1/web, e.g. sudo readlink -e /var/services/web.
Also check permissions for /volume1/web, e.g. ls -al /volume1. It should be owned by root:root and have permissive (777) bits.
Install Web Station, PHP 7.2, and phpMyAdmin in that order.
After this, I could open phpMyAdmin and be served its log in screen.
Debugging notes:
For me, when I SSH in I see in the logs similar issues:
2020/12/17 10:36:35 [error] 32658#32658: *1028 "/var/services/web/phpMyAdmin/index.php" is forbidden (13: Permission denied),
ps says that the nginx workers run as the http user (uid=1023(http) gid=1023(http) groups=1023(http)).
The directory /var/services/web/ appears to be owned by root, both group and user:
# ls -al /var/services/web/

drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 4096 Dec 17 10:29 phpMyAdmin
It's not clear to me how Web Station's nginx is intended to work at all given the mismatch - perhaps some set of actions I took prior caused it to decide to install with bad ownership.
I decided to leave everything owned by root, but changed group permissions so that http can access:
# chown -R root:http /var/services/web/
# chmod -R 775 /var/services/web/
This got past the initial error, but revealed a new one:
"/usr/syno/synoman/phpMyAdmin/index.cgi" is not found (2: No such file or directory)
Indeed, there was no trace of phpMyAdmin anywhere in that directory. Evidence of a bad install.
I decided to uninstall anything web related: phpMyAdmin, PHP 7, Apache (happened to be installed), nginx, and Web Station. Once I did, I still had two files in /var/services/web: adminer.css index.php.
I had tried adminer prior to this. In /var/services, there were symlinks to specific volume locations, e.g.:
# ls -al /var/services/

Interestingly, web was not symlinked. I fully deleted /var/services/web.
Looking over at /volume1, I do see a /volume1/web, again fully owned by root but with extremely constrained permission:
d---------+ 1 root root 52 Dec 17 10:14 web
There are only a few things in here, which look related to a blank install of Web Station. I fully deleted everything within /volume1/web, but left it as is. With everything maximally cleaned I rebooted.
Upon boot, /var/services/web was now symlinked to /volume1/web, which now also had useful permission bits (777), and owned by root:root. Maybe this was done by some boot recover process, who knows. (I still have nothing web related installed at this point.)
I installed Web Station, then PHP 7.2, then phpMyAdmin.
I had the same issue when accessing my server via
<name>.local/phpMyAdmin/
It worked when I accessed it via
<local ip>/phpMyAdmin/
guys i have looked and searched and read. yum update changed a permission somewhere but cant find where. Nagios on centos starts correctly i can view the page but for some reason i dont see any hosts or services, only 403 forbidden in the corner.
ive checked my nagios.cfg and no errors or warnings. I have started Nagios as daemon, same. Any other suggestions ?

thanks in advance.
Looks like your permissions are all messed up!
When you installed it.. was it from source? If so, did you use the --with-nagios-user= flag during ./configure?
On one of my boxes I have a combination of apache and nagios as the /usr/local/nagios owners. Try this:
chown -R nagios:nagios /usr/local/nagios
chown -R apache:nagios /usr/local/nagios/etc
chmod +x -R /usr/local/nagios/bin /usr/local/nagios/libexec
You'll also want to make sure that the nagios user and group is set in the main configuration file (/usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg), like this:
nagios_user=nagios
nagios_group=nagios
Also, did you remember to set up your htpasswd file?
htpasswd -c /usr/local/nagios/etc/htpasswd.users nagiosadmin
Anyway, hope this helps get you started!
I have installed Redis 3.0.6 on Debian. There's a /etc/init.d/redis file which starts the Redis server when the system starts or I can invoke it manually to start/stop the server. Problem is that this script is run as root user.
I have a redis user and group that I want to make Redis run under. But I can't figure out how (I have not found an option to make Redis switch user ID after startup). In my config file I use
unixsocket /home/redis/redis.sock
unixsocketperm 770
But, of course, the redis.sock is owned by root.
drwxr-xr-x 2 redis redis 4096 Jan 18 03:34 bin
drwxr-xr-x 2 redis redis 4096 Jan 18 03:55 data
-rw-r--r-- 1 redis redis 41638 Jan 18 03:52 redis.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 redis redis 16348 Jan 18 03:55 redis.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Jan 18 03:55 redis.pid
srwxrwx--- 1 root root 0 Jan 18 03:55 redis.sock
And the process is, too.
root 7913 0.1 0.1 38016 1976 ? Ssl 03:55 0:00 /home/redis/bin/redis-server *:6379
Ultimately, I have a git user that is also in the redis group and thus should in the end have access to redis.sock. (This is for a manual deployment of GitLab CE).
How I can I configure the Redis server that way?
Update your /etc/init.d to use sudo during start service (line 33):
sudo -u redis $EXEC $CONF
You may need to cleanup old files (in /var/lib) or reset their permission to redis.
