Hi Klaus,

no, openserctl use the resource file to get the fifo name via the OSER_FIFO variable.

openserctl also parses the openser.cfg for the fifo ?

Hi! It is in openser.cfg. The line is : fifo=/path

Hi!

I can nowhere found the setting for the fifo use inside openserctl. The default is /tmp/openser_fifo - where can I change this?

thanks klaus

Hi nick,

you have to configure (in openser.cfg) the owner and group for the fifo files in such a manner to permit access (read/write) for the users (OS users) interested to access the fifo.

there is no default cfg.

you your case, maybe the user running the openserctl has no permission to write into /var/tmp/ dir

regards, bogdan

A tangential question, what user should be the default for the creation of the /tmp/openser_fifo and /var/tmp/ fifo files?

I get the openser_fifo files to create just fine, but when I do an openserctl moni or any other command, I get errors about it not being able to create the /var/tmp/fifo_somerandomnumber output file..

I had this same problem before. I can't remember exactly what it involved but I remember doing chmod for root - turned on read, write and execute permissions for that directory and rebooting the server.

Strange, for the moment, I'm running openserctl as root, I put the default user and group in openser.cfg as root.

I find it strange to think that root wouldn't have the permission to write in /var/tmp.. should I try just /tmp/ ?
