Foreman » Packaging

The CWD of the process that starts the foreman-proxy service is effecting the service's ability to start. If I start foreman-proxy, as root, from /root, the service fails. If I cd to /tmp, the service starts. This is also causing logrotate to crash foreman-proxy when it's restarted. I have 4 systems running smart-proxy and so far only 1 of the 4 has the logrotate issue but all 4 fail to start foreman-proxy unless I cd to /tmp.

Example:

[root@HOST ~]# pwd
/root
[root@HOST ~]# /etc/init.d/foreman-proxy restart
