Wondering if anyone has integrated Open OnDemand with AFS. Trying to figure out authentication since I need a token to access the home directory.

I just want to mark this as resolved. I have it working. Apache 2.4/mod_auth_gssapi/mod_waklog (OpenAFS/Kerberos) plus a qsub wrapper and epilog cleanup script for orphaned processes.

Correct. I want to verify the value of KRB5CCNAME set in profile

Do you have this setting in this file? I think you need it for anything to pass to Nginx. You can add env > /tmp/env.txt directly in the profile, but you need this config below for it to be injected into the Nginx’s environment. # /etc/ood/config/nginx_stage.yml pun_custom_env_declarations: - …

Yes I have that setting. I’ll check the file.

SUDO_USER is correct. KRB5CCNAME is not.

You mean UNPRIV_USER? Do you have a typo (could it be that simple)? #!/bin/bash # SUDO_COMMAND is something like '... nginx_stage -u ktrout -a ...' UNPRIV_USER=$(echo $SUDO_COMMAND | sed -r 's#.+\-u (.+) \-a.+#\1#g') export KRB5CCNAME="FILE:/var/run/httpd/clientcaches/$UNPRIV_USER@ENEA.IT"

That’s expected because UNPRIV_USER is just a temporary variable. [image] dbarstis: SUDO_USER is correct. KRB5CCNAME is not. KRB5CCNAME is not correct, but it’s there?

In /proc/self/environ yes. KRB5CCNAME=FILE:/tmp/krb5cc_34180_G7hUSG

Sorry, not self - that’s a magic keyword for the current process (I’m guessing your terminal/bash session). You need to try to start a PUN and find your Nginx worker processes’ PID through ps and see it’s environment through /proc/<PID of the Nginx worker>/environ.

So: root 425524 1 0 16:29 ? 00:00:00 nginx: master process (dbars dbarstis 425527 425524 0 16:29 ? 00:00:00 nginx: worker process /proc/425527/environ is a binary file. strings, od and grep -a return nothing.

Sorry. I saw a SUDO_USER variable and copied/pasted. UNPRIV_USER is not in /proc/self/environ
