Description of problem: Out of the box, the murmur service won't run. It won't start as root, nor as a non-root account. As a root user I get the following output: <W>2011-12-12 09:02:26.871 Initializing settings from /etc/mumble-server.ini (basepath /etc) <W>2011-12-12 09:02:26.877 OpenSSL: OpenSSL 1.0.0e-fips 6 Sep 2011 <W>2011-12-12 09:02:26.891 SSL: Adding recommended CA UTN-USERFirst-Client Authentication and Email <C>2011-12-12 09:02:26.891 Successfully switched to uid 993 <F>2011-12-12 09:02:26.912 ServerDB: Failed initialization: unable to open database file Error opening database As non-root, the user doesn't have permissions to write a log file to /var/log/mumble-server/mumble-server.log The default setting in mumble-server.ini seems to be to try and switch to a user account of mumble-server but that user account isn't created when installing the package. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): murmur-1.2.3.5 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install a fresh install of FC16 (may have the same issue on 14/15 but haven't tested) 2. Install murmur 3. Attempt to start the service Actual results: Service won't start Expected results: Service starting Additional info: If I edit /etc/mumble-server.ini and comment out the uname setting, I can get it to run as root, but that is a security concern. I imagine the proper fix is to create a mumble-server user account and give it rights to write to the log file, but I don't know if it also needs permissions to other things (such as the sqlite database).
