Hi! I'm trying to run apps with pm2 in a jail environment using jailkit. I think I have to configure a path somewhere but I'm lost with it. My config files: [Unit] Description=PM2 process manager Documentation=https://pm2.keymetrics.io/ After=network.target [Service] Type=forking User=<USER> LimitNOFILE=infinity LimitNPROC=infinity LimitCORE=infinity Environment=PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin Environment=PM2_HOME=/home/jail/home/<USER>/.pm2 PIDFile=/home/jail/home/<USER>/.pm2/pm2.pid Restart=on-failure ExecStart=/usr/lib/node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2 resurrect ExecReload=/usr/lib/node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2 reload all ExecStop=/usr/lib/node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2 kill [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target
Youi do not write much about what is not working. So I just guess some command is not available in the jail? Add the necessary commands and their run time libraries to the jail. Jailkit has commands for this. https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial/debian-9-jail-jailkit/ More info can be found with Internet Search Engines or Oliver Sessings Jailkit documentation.
What paths do I put in here? nvironment=PM2_HOME=/home/jail/home/<USER>/.pm2 PIDFile=/home/jail/home/<USER>/.pm2/pm2.pid
Is that configuration file in a place where the application does find it? Since the application is run in a jail, you have to use paths that are valid inside that jail. If this is ISPConfig and jailed user, at least on my host the home directory is not /home/jail/home/<user>, but /home/<user>. Check what directories you have by logging in as that jailed user with the usual command line commands.
you are correct my jail directory is /home/<user>, however, I don't want to target a specific user, I want it to apply to all users the config file is ( /etc/jailkit/jk_init.ini)
That looks like jailkit configuration file. Is that related to your problem, whatever it is? Each jailed user has his/her own jail, so I can not see how you could have paths inside jail apply to all users. Now you should know which paths you need to set. Since I have no idea what is not working in that PM2 setup, I can help no more.
