Package: sslh
Version: 1.10-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,
After upgrade to latest sslh version, daemon cannot start anymore giving following error:
Starting ssl/ssh multiplexer: sslh/var/run/sslh.pid: Permission denied

/var/run/sslh/ directory is created, but according to error message, daemon tries to write to /var/run.
I've checked /etc/init.d/sslh but the pid direcroty there seems to be set correctly.

Dear Maintainer,



Hi,

After upgrade to latest sslh version, daemon cannot start anymore giving following error:
Starting ssl/ssh multiplexer: sslh/var/run/sslh.pid: Permission denied

/var/run/sslh/ directory is created, but according to error message, daemon tries to write to /var/run.
I've checked /etc/init.d/sslh but the pid direcroty there seems to be set correctly.



Upstream has changed some ordrer in the code to write the pid (it is
written as sslh user and not as root), so i've changed the default
location of the pid. I think you've upgraded and kept your
previous /etc/default/sslh file from 1.9-1,
see /etc/default/sslh.dpkg-dist for newly integrated --pidfile option:

DAEMON_OPTS="--user sslh --listen 0.0.0.0:443 --ssh 127.0.0.1:22 --ssl
127.0.0.1:443 --pidfile /var/run/sslh/sslh.pid"

I close this bug and the #652659 one.
