"User to run applications as" - the application? or keter itself?

[jwaldmann]

/opt/keter/etc/keter.yaml may contain

# User to run applications as
setuid: keter

I think "application" means "keter" here: e.g., this is setting the ownership of logfiles written by keter.

How can I run each actual application (managed by keter, of type webapp, background) under a specific user? (different from the setuid for keter)

You could use sudo, checkout the manual:

sudo, sudoedit - execute a command as another user

eg:

exec = sudo -u jack-stie -g keter-workers ../bin/myapp

Or make a small launch script in bin to do that.
