Description
After updating from 8.24 to 8.26 a defect was introduced: in 8.24 the directory CCC_RUN_DIR/etc is owned by CCC_CLOUD_IMAGE_USER but, after the update to 8.26 the owner becomes root. This resulted in an error when running the exasol-admin-ui.service:
Jul 29 16:50:35 my_db c4[83667]: Error: open /var/lib/ccc/etc/server.key: permission denied
Workaround
- Change the file ownership to {{exasol}}in the following files:
- server.crt
- server.key
- c4.yml
- Start the exasol-admin-ui.service.
Fix
The expected file ownership was reintroduced.
