I need to run a sudo command from a PHP script in CentOS 7, but I am getting an error:




sudo: no tty present and no askpass program specified




I have edited my sudoers file with the following lines, as others have advised:




  1. don't require tty:



    Defaults:apache !requiretty




  2. Set no password for apache user:



    apache  ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /path/to/app, /path/to/app2



(I have double-checked that these paths are correct). My errors persist. Any thoughts?






centos sudo php

    Is that the only sudoers line for apache? Could it be hitting another rule?

  • You would better find another way of doing that. Apache has another user for security reasons, giving sudo to Apache is a very bad idea.

  • apache = NOPASSWD: /path/2/app, /path/2/app2 could you try this?

This line does not give sudo permissions to app and app2:



apache ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /path/to/app /path/to/app2


What the above line does is give sudo permissions to run /path/to/app, only if you also pass a single argument to it of /path/to/app2. To specify multiple commands, they need to be separated by a comma:



apache ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /path/to/app, /path/to/app2

Postfix configuration issue with fips on centos 7; mailgun relay

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 0 down vote favorite I am trying to setup postfix to relay all mail generated on the local machine via SMTP to a mailgun relay. I have used the mailgun relay before with success on an ubuntu server, but I am migrating to a Centos 7 server which I will be running in FIPS mode. There error log is below, slightly sanitized. I have a small enough network that I choose to have each machine reach out to mailgun individually (this the loopback-only, 127.0.0.0/8 restrictions) and no firewall open port allowing smtp in to the machine. I assume the FIPS mode (and with it disabling of MD5) is causing problems, but I don't know how to overcome it or if it is even possible for tls_fprint to use some supported hash such as sha256 or sha512. However, the relay=none is slightly concerning since I have relayhost set, but perhaps that is because the smtp process is failing? Any help would be appreciated! postconf -n: alias_database = hash:/etc/alia
