Could you send:

 ls -la `which fusermount`
jczimm commented 8 years ago 
ls -la `which fusermount`

gives me:

-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 32584 Jun 10  2014 /usr/bin/fusermount
cjb commented 8 years ago

The error is 5 2016/03/02 21:38:35 mount helper error: fusermount: failed to access mountpoint /keybase: Permission denied, but I don't see why you're getting that error.

jczimm commented 8 years ago

Won't it have more to do with the permissions set for /keybase?

cjb commented 8 years ago

I think they should be 777. Can you confirm that?

jczimm commented 8 years ago 
[kbuser@myserver ~]$ sudo ls -la / | grep keybase
drwxr-xr-x    1 root root     0 Mar  2 21:30 keybase

[kbuser@myserver ~]$ sudo chmod 777 /keybase

[kbuser@myserver ~]$ sudo ls -la / | grep keybase

Any update?

cjb commented 8 years ago

No, sorry. We don't use CentOS; if I hear of someone getting it working there I'll try to update this issue with how.

jczimm commented 8 years ago

Okay, thanks!

strib commented 8 years ago

@jczimm: you might need to do:

usermod -a -G fuse $USER

(mentioned on https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=6316).

jczimm commented 8 years ago

@strib I'm not sure that this is directly related; there is no "fuse" group on my server.

strib commented 8 years ago

@jczimm: Ah, does yum install fuse fuse-dev do anything? Maybe fuse isn't installed by default in CentOS. (Though it'd be weird to get a permission denied error in that case.) Sorry, I don't have one handy for testing.

jczimm commented 8 years ago

@strib That seemed to update fuse, but no fuse-dev package was available.

cjb commented 8 years ago

fuse-devel maybe?

jczimm commented 8 years ago

I successfully installed fuse-devel. The error persists.

lsim commented 4 years ago

Any progress on this in the mean time?

<edit> I just realized I just needed to execute run_keybase on my headless centos server. The kbfs folders appeared with the expected contents! </edit>

Maybe this issue can be closed?
