#295: memcached error on CS when I input a new event -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: filippos@dsi.gr | Owner: wsanchez@apple.com Type: Defect | Status: assigned Priority: 1: Blocker | Milestone: 2.0 Component: Calendar Server | Version: trunk Severity: Crash/data loss | Resolution: Keywords: memcached | -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Comment (by wsanchez@apple.com): Aaron, CalendarServer drops privileges to the user configured in its config file after doing some operations that may require root access, such as binding to the listen port (which in many cases would be port 80, a privileged port) or setting up some log files which the running server doesn't need write access to. It is not a bad idea to start the server as root, if properly configured, but it is true than in some deployments, it may not be necessary. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.calendarserver.org/ticket/295#comment:5> CalendarServer </> HTTP/WebDAV/CalDAV Server
