Subject: run_init requires full path.
Date: Wed, 20 Sep 2006 11:30:17 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <45115E89.7060209@redhat.com> (raw)

Why does run_init require me to have the full path?  Is there a security 
reason for this?

The basic problem is run_init, does a chdir("/") before execing the app.

So if I want to run a test script
run_init test.sh or
run_init ./test.sh

does not work.

I end up having to do
run_init `pwd`/test.sh
