Description

I want start kamailio as root user with carrierroute module.
and get this error message

[root@ip-172-22-6-233 config]# kamailio -DD -E

I checked file permissions

[root@ip-172-22-6-233 config]# ls -l /etc/kamailio/carrierroute.conf
-rw-rw----. 1 kamailio kamailio 403 Jun 23 18:07 /etc/kamailio/carrierroute.conf

Looks as file permissions as expected.

Troubleshooting

Issue related to a difference of process user/group and file user/group.

Reproduction

  1. create /etc/kamailio/carrierroute.conf with kamailio user/group;
  2. change file permissions to 660;
  3. start kamailio as root user

Possible Solutions

Add information about the expected user group permissions, like

config file /etc/kamailio/carrierroute.conf not writable or not owned by "root" user and "root" group
