TeamSite not starting

infoForDj

Hi,

We had a permission issue on a branch.
By mistake, instaed of just setting 777 on that branch, the 777 permissions were set on everything under root (/).
After that, CGIs started giving problems such as the error, "...instantiator.cgi should be run as root".
We tried restarting the server but TeamSite did not start.
The error in servletd.log is:

Can somebody please help me understand the root cause and come up with a solution.

Thanks in advance,

I believe there is an Appendix in the Admin manual - or perhaps a KB article on the Support site that lists all the files that need to have special permissions (e.g. setuid root) in the TS installation.

If you can find and follow that - I believe it should fix most, if not all, of your problems.

The other alternative is to uninstall and reinstall TS and not make the same mistake you did the first time.
