Description Ted Ross 2008-06-03 15:52:02 UTC 
The qpidd broker uses "/var/lib/qpidd" as its default data directory.  If
installed and run as a service, this directory is owned by qpidd:qpidd.  Any
user that subsequently tries to use qpidd from the command line will get a
startup exception denying access to the data directory.

Two problems:

1) This shouldn't happen.  A better default directory ($HOME/.qpidd ?) might
solve this problem.

2) The error that is displayed doesn't say what the directory is, only that it's
inaccessible.

qpidc-0.2.667603-1.el5, qpidc-perftest-0.2.667603-1.el5, qpidd-0.2.667603-1.el5, and rhm-0.2.2153-1.el5 have been pushed to the staging repo for testing
