Hi,
We have installed MemSQL 6.7.11 following the latest official guide.
We have created a user “memuser” with sudo privileges and used it to launch the “memsql-deploy setup-cluster” command.
The command completed successfully and returned the following:
Registered hosts
memsql-deploy will perform the following actions:

But, whenever we run ‘memsql-admin list-nodes’, it returns the following:
✘ Failed to list nodes on all hosts: failed to list nodes on 6 hosts: x.x.x.x, x.x.x.x, x.x.x.x, x.x.x.x, x.x.x.x, x.x.x.x
No nodes found
.
.
.
Running “sudo memsqlctl …” returns the data successfully and shows the cluster as up and running.
After troubleshooting the issue, it seems memsql-admin is trying to launch memsqlctl as “memuser” as memsql-report would return the following error:
✘ Failed to collect informationSchemaPipelines: error running memsqlctl: error running command:
"/usr/bin/memsqlctl" "--json" "--yes" "list-nodes" "--"Master"
: exit status 1
stderr: memsqlctl is configured to require that users be in the ‘memsql’ group for read access. Please rerun the command as a user in this group or theuser: open /var/lib/memsql/nodes.hcl.lock: permission denied
.
.
.
If we configure memsql-admin to implicitly run as root, then everything will work fine. But it’s not recommended from our side and memsql doesn’t require it.
Is the above behavior a bug? Or have we missed something?
Thank you.
