[03:39] <nicksloan> I wrote an upstart job that runs a rails app with unicorn. I have setuid deploy in my job configuration. I'm getting an error that '~' cannot be expanded. upstart 1.12. any ideas?
[11:04] <soren> nicksloan: Check your environment. Expanding ~ requires $HOME or $USER to be set (typically). Upstart job environments are (intentionally) very clean.
[11:04] <nicksloan> soren: thanks for the response. I figured that out eventually. Had to manually set $HOME. Probably not the best idea, but it worked
[11:11] <soren> nicksloan: Nah, a system level daemon like that should probably not rely on $HOME, but you do what you have to do, right? :)
[11:24] <nicksloan> soren: exactly.
