mosquitto_passwd -U fails in docker after 2.0.16

[nikarh]

Hi,

after this change 44b9487 it seems that running mosquitto_passwd -U users.conf in a docker container always fails with Error creating backup password file

Steps to reproduce

This fails on 2.0.16

docker run --rm --entrypoint "" eclipse-mosquitto:2.0.16 ash -c "\
     echo a:a > /mosquitto/users.conf; \
     chmod 660 /mosquitto/users.conf;  \
     mosquitto_passwd -U /mosquitto/users.conf"

While older versions don't

docker run --rm --entrypoint "" eclipse-mosquitto:2.0.15 ash -c "\
     echo a:a > /mosquitto/users.conf; \
     chmod 660 /mosquitto/users.conf;  \
     mosquitto_passwd -U /mosquitto/users.conf"

Experiencing the same issue, running 2.0.16

/mosquitto/config $ mosquitto_passwd /mosquitto/config/password.conf new-user
Error creating backup password file "/mosquitto/config/password.conf.bac", not continuing.

Thanks to whoever will fix it :)

I noticed the same thing, also...

600+ issues
50+ PRs

What is going on with this repository, is there anyone maintaining it?

This taught me a lesson in using the -latest tag in docker.
Glad it is being fixed.
