<p class="MsoNormal">Hello, it is strange for sure. Below is the steps so you can investigate.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">1 Install mr12.3.1 on a vm with ngcp-installer.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">2 run ngcp-initial-configuration. At this stage along with other configurations ngcp is functioning.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">3. nginx failed to start because of ssl directory and dhparam.pem is missing within
<i>/etc/ngcp-config/shared-files/ssl</i><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">4 manually created ssl directory. And generated dhparam.pem file. The new ssl directory automatically has permissions like this root:ssl_cert , tried to change to permission to root:root, run ngcpcfg apply. After it revert back to root:ssl_cert
. I think there’s a script that revert back the permission of the ssl folder created to root:ssl_cert<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">That’s where the issue lies. <o:p></o:p></p>
