The authentication server is not SETUID ROOT

[lanna]

Hi,

validating the SAS Server from MC i received the error:

The authentication server is not SETUID ROOT.

I run the setuid.sh utility and restarted the services many times.

I just checked the elssrv sasauth sasperm setuid bit. No error in sasauth-debug.log, sasauth-access.log, sasauth-error.log.

Any suggestions?

Thaks,

Luca

@lanna,

This is multi-tier environment or everything has been installed on a single machine? Please start the workspace server directly from Linux console:

/<SASConfig>/Lev<X>/SASApp/WorkspaceServer/WorkspaceServer.sh -nodms

and send to me an output from the following SAS program:

%put %sysget(TKPATH);
%put %sysget(TK_PATHLIST);

Hi,

thanks for your time. Yes it is all on same machine.

The command output are:

%put %sysget(TKPATH);

WARNING: The argument to macro function %SYSGET is not defined as a system variable.

%put %sysget(TK_PATHLIST);

Thanks,

@lanna,

Thanks for your response. Please do the following:

1) Run /<SASConfig>/Lev<X>/ObjectSpawner/ObjectSpawner.sh stop
2) Edit /<SASConfig>/Lev<X>/ObjectSpawner/ObjectSpawner.sh and add the code shown below right after SCRIPT=`basename $0`:

if [ -n "$TKPATH" ]; then
unset TKPATH
fi

if [ -n "$TK_PATHLIST" ]; then
unset TK_PATHLIST
fi

3) Run /<SASConfig>/Lev<X>/ObjectSpawner/ObjectSpawner.sh start

@lanna,

You are welcome. When you have these variables, the validation will be performed at a wrong place. That's it.

I had to put a semicolon after the ] in order for the syntax to be correct in Linux & bash.
