Agreed! It took me hours to get to this point, but I think I tracked down the problem alright. I'm not sure how to fix it, though. Possibly, removing a certain feature helps. Perhaps that'll break PAR on some systems. I don't know. Anyhow, PAR 0.957 is on its way to CPAN now. You can grab a copy from http://steffen-mueller.net/tmp/PAR-0.957.tar.gz until it is available from your CPAN mirror. Please tell me whether this fixes the symlink problem! Steffen

Hi Steffen thanks alot! I have tested only Linux Slackware so far, but I will test it on Solaris intel and Sparc soon. Everything seems working except for this (not a big problem but...): photview is a link to photclient rumen@bc2s:~$ su Password: root@bc2s:/home/rumen# rm /tmp/par-rumen/ -r root@bc2s:/home/rumen# photclient **** window appears **** root@bc2s:/home/rumen# exit exit rumen@bc2s:~$ photview Permission denied at ../blib/lib/PAR.pm line 845. rumen@bc2s:~$ ls -l /tmp/ drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2006-10-24 23:08 par-rumen/ rumen@bc2s:~$ The point is that rumen->"su"->root creates /tmp/par-rumen with owner root. In this case "rumen" can not execute any other PARs I think it should create /tmp/par-root as rumen->"su -"->root does. What about the Fedora 4 and 5 issue? Thanks again for the instant reaction.

Marking this ticket as resolved. I created a separate ticket (with the appropriate title about $user->"su"->root causing /tmp/par-$user being owned by root. Possibly, that is due to "su" keeping environment variables such as $ENV{USER} et al which are used to determine the name of the cache dir. I would have to test that. Perhaps that is even a bug in your specific system. (I'm not pointing fingers, though!) Steffen
