[Pacemaker] Pure-FTPd resource script is wrong (at least on ubuntu and probably debian)

[Frank Lazzarini]

Hi all,

I actually read this thread earlier this week on my phone and I wanted 
to answer about this more general problem. I ran into problems with this 
when I was trying to get openvpn to work in pacemaker once, and I solved 
this problem otherwise. Since then I always chose this solution, so I 
wouldn't have to change anything on the resource agents or so on, but I 
don't know if it is really an acceptable way of solving this. Anyways 
here is what I do, let's say you need to have /var/run/mysql for your 
service to work, what I do I just add a cronjob which creates that 
directory which the propper permissions every bootup which should be 
fine enough.

/etc/cron.d/varrun

@reboot    root   [ -d /var/run/mysqld ] || install -m 755 -o mysql -g 
root -d /var/run/mysqld


something similar can be done for other services like for instance pureftpd.

Hope that helps! :)
