It is very likely that you will not want to have the Geronimo server process under the super user root. The following are a series of simple steps for changing the ownership and permissions for the required files in order to run Geronimo with a different user. |
The following tasks should be performed while logged in as root or a user with enough access rights.
PATH=$PATH:<java_home>/bin export PATH JAVA_HOME=<java_home> export JAVA_HOME |
chown -R root:www <geronimo_home> |
chmod -R 774 <geronimo_home>/bin chmod -R 774 <geronimo_home>/deploy chmod -R 774 <geronimo_home>/repository chmod -R 774 <geronimo_home>/var |
cd <geronimo_home>/bin ./geronimo.sh run |
You are now able to run and deploy applications with a user other than root.
