Re: [BackupPC-users] Could Not Open Password File

Do you have selinux enabled? I encountered significant challenges getting BackupPC and SELinux to play nice with each other. Check /var/log/audit/audit.log for a report.

So should I change the owner and group for apache.users to owner backuppc and group backuppc?

Thanks Richard. See below:

-r--rw-rw-. 1 root root 47 Jul 12 21:36 apache.users

I don't really have a good way to deal with this from a packaging perspective, I'll review the readme's and see if I can make it more clear.

You obviously created the apache.users files from root, the file needs to have the same owner and group as the other files (backuppc/apache). After that the usual attributes should work (644).

Thanks,

Richard
