Description

when following the default installation doc http://www.kaltura.org/kaltura-ce-running-installation-script, kaltura runs as root. documentation/installer should be fixed, so that it runs as unprivileged user (e.g. www-data or nobody).

Hey,

Installer runs as root, however Kaltura runs as a webservice under apache user.
Please describe more if you see different behavior.

The problem is that all of the parts of kaltura that are not run from apache, i.e. the video encoding part run as the root user (!)
