From beedb7866a8870fe501a30dd3333fb2fe41d93cc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonathan Druart Date: Thu, 19 Mar 2015 16:54:02 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Bug 13876: Fallback to /tmp if logdir is not writable If the logdir directory is not writable by the koha user, the installer should not explode. This patch uses a temporary directory as a fallback. That means that the history won't be kept. Test plan: 0/ Generate an update (modify updatedatabase.pl and kohaversion) 1/ Make sure the permission are not correct on $logdir 2/ Go on the interface and execute the update entry. 3/ Confirm that the log has been created in a temporaty directory. Retry with correct permissions and confirm the log will be created in $logdir. Signed-off-by: Marcel de Rooy Adding a follow-up for completely resolving encountered issues.
