Hi , we have a python django web app . In this web app, we will call VMware ovf tool (https://my.vmware.com/group/vmware/details?productId=491&downloadGroup=OVFTOOL410) .This tool is needed to be installed (sudo bash VMware-ovftool-4.1.0-2459827-lin.x86_64.bundle),How can we support this in CF V2?

Apps don't have root access, so you can't `sudo` or `su`. Can you run this

not as root? If so, you could package the binaries you need with the app. Dan On Wed, Jan 27, 2016 at 1:36 AM, Lynn Lin <Lynn.Lin(a)emc.com> wrote:

Before I check if we need root access,we not only package the binary but also its all dependency,correct?

Correct. There's a couple ways you could do it.

- You can package the installer and run that before your app starts (assuming the installer can be run as a non-root user). You can use a `.profile.d` script to run the installer or just shell out in your app. - You can pick individual binaries. This is trickier because then you need to pull in all of the dependencies (shared libraries, files, etc) of the binary. I find that the `ldd` is helpful to find the shared libraries required by a binary. The first option is generally easier, while the second might allow you to package a smaller amount of files with your app. Dan Dan On Wed, Jan 27, 2016 at 8:18 AM, Lin, Lynn <lynn.lin(a)emc.com> wrote:
