I noticed that after I
upgrade the server from ERS to vFabric WS, I encountered an error which I
stated above. I listed below on how to fix it.
How to fix the error:
Step 1) Check the user
and group owner of the folder where you install the vFabric Web Server (i.e. ls
-l ).
Example:
[rhserver]$ ls –l /opt/myserver/vfabricws
drwxrwxr-x. 2 wadmin
wsgrp 4096 Jul 22 17:02 vfabricws
The vabfricws user owner is wadmin and groupowner is wsgrp
Step 2) Open your file conf/httpd.conf and look for the text User
vfhttpd and Group vfhttpd or
sometimes User nobody or Group nobody
Example:
User vfhttpd
Group vfhttpd
Or
User nobody
Group nobody
Step
3) Change User for vfhttpd or nobody to wadmin, and change Group owner from vfhttpd or nobody to wsgrp
Example:
User wadmin
Group wsgrp
Step 4)
Save the httpd.conf file.
Step 5) Restart your vfabric WS (i.e. sudo ./httpdctl stop; sudo ./httpdctl start;)
Now verify if you still getting an error in you error.log
