I have installed daemontools-0.76 on a CentOS 8 system as per the official docs here: http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html.
I then created a test service symlinked in /service/test
with a simple run
file that echoes text to stdout (as basic as it gets). Both the test folder and run file have 755 permissions.
run
file:
#!/bin/sh
echo "test"
The file executes fine manually, of course, and I can even run /command/supervise /service/test
and the service runs as expected. I can use svc -u/-d <service>
to start/stop via the supervisor.
However, when I run /command/svscan /service
I get the following error:
svscan: warning: unable to start supervise test: permission denied
I have not found any leads to indicate what permissions are in conflict here. Things I've tried:
- Both with the
test/supervise
folder present (created bysupervise
when run manually), and with this folder removed (i.e., starting the service from scratch); same result either way (note:supervise
is not running when I try to startsvscan
, although I did try with it running in the background as well with the same error) - Verified permissions (755) on the commands themselves (under
/package/admin/daemontools-0.76/command/
) - Verified permissions (755) on all folders (/command, /service, /package, and the service folder)
- I thought that perhaps since
/tmp
is mountednoexec
that might be an issue if anything was trying to use this dir, but I retried with it mountedexec
and that didn't help - I thought an
strace
might help, but there don't seem to be any issues that my untrained eye can see:

Any thoughts?
Edit: I just tried these exact same steps on a CentOS 7 machine, and it works correctly. Maybe it's an issue in glibc calls in the codebase not compatible with later versions (2.17 vs 2.28)?
