I'm having problems with 0.8.0 with --enable-restore-ids. When I try to
restart a checkpointed job, I get the following error:
- open('/var/cache/nscd/passwd', 0x0) failed: -13
- mmap failed: /var/cache/nscd/passwd
- thaw_threads returned error, aborting. -13
Restart failed: Permission denied
If I recompile 0.8.0 without restore-ids, it doesn't have this error. I
think that the problem may be that the nscd cache is opened on behalf of
the program by libc as root, but when BLCR tries to restart the
checkpointed program as the original user, it can't open the nscd cache.
Is there a way to fix this?
