For me the group “appserverusr” (as written somewhere) did not work, and just made that the app just didn’t start at all.
You must be experiencing a different problem, because we deploy our WO apps with root owner and wheel group. So changing owner to appserver and group to appserveradm for all app files is unnecessary. Also, making every file in the woa bundle executable is just wrong, but may be solving the real problem (although using overkill to do so).
If you are using ant to build deployable apps with the build.xml file included with WOLips, you may be running into the problem that yourapp.woa/yourapp and yourapp.woa/Contents/MacOS/yourapp have 750 permissions but an owner that's not appserver. In this situation, wotaskd, running as appserver, cannot execute your WO app shell scripts, so your WO apps won't start.
The manual fix:
sudo chmod 755 yourapp.woa/yourapp yourapp.woa/Contents/MacOS/yourapp An automatic fix (thanks to Chuck Hill!) is to insert the following in build.xml just prior to the closing </target> tag in the "build.woapp" target:
<!-- Change file permissions from 750 to 755 for build product executables --> <chmod file="${dest.dir}${file.separator}${project.name}.woa${file.separator}${project.name}" perm="755"/> <chmod file="${dest.dir}${file.separator}${project.name}.woa${file.separator}Contents${file.separator}MacOS${file.separator}${project.name}" perm="755"/>
Making this build.xml change in all of your app projects will ensure that you won't forget to perform the manual fix after each deployment installation which plagued me. |
