The problem is in apparmor configuration: ``` audit: type=1400 audit(1524780087.048:210): apparmor="DENIED" operation="file_mmap" profile="/usr/sbin/ejabberdctl//su" name="/usr/lib/erlang/p1_pam/bin/epam" pid=25519 comm="epam" requested_mask="m" denied_mask="m" fsuid=0 ouid=0 ```
`mmap` permission needs to be specified for the epam suid binary helper. Attached patch fixes the problem, pam authentication starts to work. ** Patch added: "ejabberd-pam-apparmor.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ejabberd/+bug/1767101/+attachment/5127951/+files/ejabberd-pam-apparmor.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1767101 Title: epam crashes instantly on ejabberd start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ejabberd/+bug/1767101/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
