Pulp

i thought we on purpose wanted to get rid of apache user to give the possibility to use nginx for example as well.

@ipanova, so do you think we ought to change the dev environment to "pulp" user also?

yes, that's my understanding

Currently in our dev environment, we have two users: vagrant and apache. We're running pulp (via runserver) as vagrant while apache owns the files and runs the processes pulp_workers, etc.

Two options I see:

1. We create a new pulp user in ansible and have it own the files, processes, etc
2. Replace BOTH the vagrant and apache users with a pulp user

I have option 1 working now. It's a rather minimal change. Option 2 is a radical change and I'm not 100% sure it might work.

Thoughts?

This is technically a duplicate of 2879 (https://pulp.plan.io/issues/2879) but I will close that one instead since this is already assigned.

Discussed with bmbouter, @dkliban, and @asmacdo in person and am going to try option 2.

So in order to replace the vagrant user with a pulp user, we'll have to update the vagrant box image. I'm opening another task to do this:

https://pulp.plan.io/issues/3065

I'm going with option 1 for now. #3065 will implement option 2.
