Apache as root on 1 file (visudo) - lukeg01 - 27th Jan, 2014 03:09 AM

hello,
i got a problem
i need apache to have acces to 2 scripts ( /home/xbian/lights/elro & /home/xbian/lights/action {there is a duplicate in /home/xbian/wiringPi/examples/lights})
when adding this to the visudo file
www-data ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /home/xbian/wiringPi/examples/lights/./
it doesn't work, it can't run the scripts, so i tryed:
www-data ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /home/xbian/wiringPi/examples/lights/
now im on : www-data ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL
and still doesn't work

i prefer the link to the file sinds it is more safe but can't get it to work...

Is there a list of brands pi light works with ?
And how does it posts command from web interface, that way I can include it in my web app
Can I switch lights from terminal this way?

Did you even took the effort to check the pilight website? ConfusedConfused

Yes, but didn' find it

RE: Apache as root on 1 file (visudo) - CurlyMo - 27th Jan, 2014 07:51 PM

- The list of brands can be found on the main page on the right. Can't be clearer.
- The last blog post is about the webinterface.
- The frontpage message is all about what pilight is (including it's webinterface).
- The second to last blog post is about how to switch lights from the command line.

You can't be serious when you say you took some effort.

@lukeg01

www-data ALL= NOPASSWD: /home/xbian/wiringPi/examples/lights

and command to run it (issued by apache) needs to be : "sudo /home/xbian/wiringPi/examples/lights"

Still doesn't work... Take a look at my PHP page, I think it goes wrong there

PHP Code:
<?php
if ( isset($_POST['button']) ) {
shell_exec('sudo /home/xbian/wiringPi/examples/lights/elro '.$_POST["button"].'');
}
?>

@mk01, shouldn't you be promoting pilight as a favor Wink
@lukeg01, still didn't hear from you why pilight doesn't suit your needs.

RE: Apache as root on 1 file (visudo) - CurlyMo - 5th Feb, 2014 07:26 AM

I never heard any user that had sender problems? It's wierd that you want a system you understand but i only read questions here on how to get it to work Wink

Did you read the tutorials?
