[OpenSIPS-Users] running opensips under another user

[Dave Singer]

Anton,

When you are trying to start it are you starting it using the -u opensips
and -g opensips command line options to have it run as opensips user and
group?
That way in the startup script you can easily remove the dead pid as root
(checking first to be sure opensips is not actually running).
