Asterisk 12.4

I am seeing message "Error opening file for reading: Permission denied"
several times during the asterisk startup (asterisk -cvvvvv) but it
doesn't say which file. Is there a way to find out which file is having
trouble?

Mitch,

Is it the below error?

if ((fd = open(filename, O_RDONLY)) < 0) {
ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "Cannot open file '%s' for reading: %s\n", filename, strerror(errno));
return NULL;
}

Regards,
Paul

No, that's not it. The wording is different.

I tried grep too.

No 3rd party modules - this is an out-of-the box download and build.
I'm guessing that some library function is being called to read a file
and the error is happening there?

Grepping the output of the strace revealed this:

stat("/root/.terminfo", 0x7fff8622ed50) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
open("/root/.asterisk_history", O_RDONLY) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
open("/root/.odbcinst.ini", O_RDONLY) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
[this one many times]

That must be because I'm starting asterisk as "root". When I su to
asterisk first, then start it, those above disappear. Problem solved!

Thanks Steve!
