[Unity-idm-discuss] The mysterious case of the missing stylesheet

[D B. <ba...@aw...>]

Hi!

I'm experiencing some weirdness with the admin console stylesheet(s):
when running unity as user unity-idm, my browser says it's not found
(404). When running unity as root, it's loaded perfectly fine.

The stylesheet in question is:
https://my-unity:2443/console/VAADIN/themes/sidebarThemeValo/styles.css?v=8.9.2

which is present on the system and belongs to the unity user:
408 -rw-r--r--. 1 unity-idm unity-idm 413760 Feb 27 16:12
/var/lib/unity-idm/webContents/VAADIN/themes/sidebarThemeValo/styles.css

If I start the unity server (as root) with
unity-idm-server-start
the stylesheet loads just fine.

If I start unity with the service script included in the rpm like this
systemctl start unity-idm
unity runs as user unity-idm but doesn't find the stylesheet.

Strangely, it finds the favicon located in the same folder without issues.


I've already compiled the stylesheets after receiving a warning in
unity-startup.log:
INFO: Request for /VAADIN/themes/unityThemeValo/styles.css not handled
by sass compiler while in production mode

with

for DIR in /var/lib/unity-idm/webContents/VAADIN/themes/*; do echo $DIR;
unity-idm-scss-compile $DIR; done

Now the warning is gone but the stylesheet still doesn't display.

Do you have hints for resolving this?

Cheers,
D
