Can't upload files

Added by Darhl Thomason over 3 years ago

I installed Redmine 3.4.13 on CentOS 8, basically following https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-install-redmine-on-redhat-8.

Environment:
  Redmine version                3.4.13.stable
  Ruby version                   2.4.9-p362 (2019-10-02) [x86_64-linux]
  Rails version                  4.2.11.1
  Environment                    production
  Database adapter               PostgreSQL
SCM:
  Subversion                     1.10.2
  Git                            2.18.4
  Filesystem                     
Redmine plugins:
  clipboard_image_paste          1.13
  redmine_agile                  1.5.3
  redmine_importer               1.2.2
  redmine_lightbox2              0.4.5
  redmineup_tags                 2.0.8

Because of the plugins that my team wanted to use, we went with 3.4.x instead of the v4.x that the tutorial uses.

And because I had to downlevel Ruby, I used RVM to install that.

I also added the apache user to the redmine group:

cat /etc/group | grep redmine
wheel:x:10:myusername,redmine
redmine:x:1002:apache
rvm:x:1003:redmine

Right now, the 'Attachments directory writable' and 'Plugin assets directory writable (./public/plugin_assets)' both have red !'s, and I cannot upload any files.

Doesn't make a difference if SELinux is enforcing or disabled, owner on the folders (/opt/redmine/files & /opt/redmine/public/plugin_assets) are set recursively for redmine:redmine, I've even set the permissions to 777 with no change.

This post (https://www.redmine.org/boards/2/topics/58156) seems to indicate that the owner of /opt/redmine/config.ru is what determines what user Passenger runs as, this file is set to redmine:redmine.

Some log exports are:

I saw a post somewhere that said Passenger runs as 'nobody', but I don't know how to tell or how to check that.

Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks!

Passenger runs as 'nobody' if the owner of config/environment.rb (in your environment, /opt/redmine/config/environment.rb) is root. Otherwise, it runs as the same user as the owner of config/environment.rb.

RE: Can't upload files - Added by Darhl Thomason over 3 years ago

Hmm, the environment.rb is owned by the redmine user. The entire structure from /opt/redmine and down is owned by the redmine user, any thoughts on why I cannot write to the 'files' location?

chmod -R +w /opt/redmine/files

RE: Can't upload files - Added by Darhl Thomason over 3 years ago

The files should not have to be world writable to work, there was something else going on.

I ended up just killing that server and starting over. Actually talked the team that requested it to go with 4.1. That's working great. Still don't know why the 3.4 install was having issues, I know it's not related to the version of Redmine.
