OpenBGPD 0.5.6 - Simple startup bug fixed - Hello package maintainer!!

[pfinch]

Hi,

I hope the package maintainer finds this.

In pfSense 2.0.1-RELEASE, OpenBGPD 0.5.6 the /var/etc/openbgpd/bgpd.conf permissions are set wrong causing OpenBGPD not to start.

chmod 600 /var/etc/openbgpd/bgpd.conf fixes the issue.

Hope this helps,
Peter

The code already directs the startup script (bgpd.sh) to run

chmod u+rw,go-rw {$bgpd_config_base}/bgpd.conf

Were you starting it from the GUI or from /usr/local/etc/rc.d/bgpd.sh start? Or were you trying to launch it by hand from the command line?

@pfinch:

chmod 600 /var/etc/openbgpd/bgpd.conf fixes the issue.

On a clean install I'm facing this issue too: pfSense 2.0.1-RELEASE (amd64), OpenBGPD 0.5.6

My setup also complains for missing /usr/local/etc/bgpd.conf
To be able to run OpenBGPD I've had to:

ln -s /var/etc/openbgpd/bgpd.conf /usr/local/etc/bgpd.conf
chmod 600 /var/etc/openbgpd/bgpd.conf
