I originally suggested this capability and from my perspective it has run pretty much as I had requested. Re: Need ability to become different user on wrapper launch 2004-07-07 00:47 The nice feature was the 'su' would prompt you for the password and then launch as the user. However, the 'stop' was not implemented the same way and this then requires you to become the user to terminate the process. Of course, I was not root which moots this point. My submitted prototype had this capability. I am sure there was a rational but since I saw this thread I thought I would throw out the idea again. Thanks for the tool/wrapper. I have used it in many ways. Rich -----Original Message----- From: wra...@li... [mailto:wra...@li...] On Behalf Of Leif Mortenson Sent: Wednesday, December 07, 2005 6:54 PM To: wra...@li... Subject: Re: [Wrapper-user] RUN_AS_USER question Nick, The thinking here was that running in console mode would mainly be done by developers where as it would be run as a daemon process when being run as the specific user. I have actually been reconsidering this as of late. If I have a user "myapp" which the app is being run as, then I attempt to run it in console mode as a test then several files will be created by "root" rather than "myapp". If I then go back and start the application as a daemon process, the files created in the previous run will not be able to be accessed as they were created as "root"... I am thinking of changing this behavior for the 3.2.0 release so that the RUN_AS_USER setting is always used. I take it you agree with this? Do you see=20 any potential problems? I doubt that anyone will complain about this as anyone who had been taking advantage of the old behavior would likely have been running into the problem that I mentioned above.
