[pkg-uWSGI-devel] Bug#970793: uwsgi: uswgi server startup failure if configuration strict=True used

[Manfred Benesch]

Package: uwsgi
Version: 2.0.18-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

when using the configuration option strict=True for a uwsgi app the server does
not start anymore. After setting the strict-option to False all apps run fine.

The problem is the use of 'deb-confnamespace' and 'deb-confname' options in the
default.ini without declaring them.

Applying the following patch would solve that problem by declaring the two
options:

--- /usr/share/uwsgi/conf/default.ini.orig      2020-09-23 15:17:13.770408349
+0200
+++ /usr/share/uwsgi/conf/default.ini   2020-09-23 15:16:48.780689187 +0200

 #
 # Example: name of '/etc/uwsgi/apps-enabled/site.ini' is 'site'.

+# declare deb-confnamespace and deb-confname options
+declare-option = deb-confnamespace=$1
+declare-option = deb-confname=$1
+
 # enable master process manager
 master = true

Disabling the use of the inherited config in /etc/default/uwsgi would also
solve it but i think after package installation it should run user apps without
change the default configuration.
