Package: apache-perl
Version: 1.3.33-2
Severity: normal

This is probably related to #167966 (archived)

In my experience apache-perl inherits its umask from process, invoking
/etc/init.d/apache-perl

Our web application creates session files. Our nightly maintenance
cronjobs use /etc/init.d/apache-perl to stop/start apache. Also, the
cronjobs sets umask 0227 (having in mind permissions of archived files).
In the morning, the session files created are with access rights
r--r-----, which effectifely disables any writing to them.

In #167966 I see a reference to /etc/init.d/rcS, which indeed sets umask
0022. However, /etc/init.d/apache-perl never sources /etc/init.d/rcS.

Maybe /etc/init.d/apache-perl should a) source /etc/init.d/rcS, or b)
set a saner umask itself, or c) document the issue in README.Debian.


Thank you for your attention.

You filed the bug http://bugs.debian.org/292377 in Debian BTS
against the package apache-perl. I'm closing it at *unstable*, but it will
remain open for older distributions.

For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/418266. That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed and suggestions of possible replacements.

Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.

Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
