Title: Issue setting up linux server.
Post by: N3ST on August 31, 2016, 01:15:35 pm

Hi Everyone,

I am having issue starting the golden Eye Source dedicated server on linux using an unprivileged user (it works fine with the root user).

Failed to open Python log file for write!

Any idea on that?

Is there a way for me to specify the log output folder?

I am using an unprivileged user to run the server, it has only access to the home folder.

Best regards,

N3ST

Can you setup the GES files in your home folder? This is an interesting issue, I will write a bug report to redirect the Python log to the users home folder.

Hi,

Is there a way for me to specify the python log file path?

I am running it from the home folder of the unprivileged user created specifically to run the server and avoid any security issue.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,

N3ST

You can edit the GESInit.py file

I solved the sisue :

chown user:user -R /GESDDSFOLDER

and it solved the issue.

Completely forgot to do that XD.

Sorry!
