I've finally identified the permissions problem I'm having with using
roundup through the web. The problem is that even though I added the
user 'www-data' to the group 'rsupport' (who can write to the
directory), when I start zope it doesn't think it is in that group.
In fact, if I execute 'whoami' and 'groups' from within zope I get
whoami : www-data (expected, what I want)
groups : www-data root lpadmin (huh!?)
The groups the user www-data is in is only 'www-data' and 'rsupport'.
I suspect the problem is somehow related to zope starting as root and
then switching users. I tried adding root to the rsupport group, but
nothing changed.
Any suggestions on how to make the cgi script obtain the correct group
permissions?
TIA,
-D
PS. note that the usual logout/login procedure is not possible
because www-data isn't logged in at all.
