Fail explicitly when missing logfile permissions

Closed this issue · 0 comments

If IRRD is started as root, configured to drop privileges, but the logfile only allows writing by root, it will start successfully, but processes will break as soon as they try to write a log line. Silently, as they can not write a log line explaining why they failed. IRRD should probably check these permissions and fail in a clear way.
