Original Pull Request: https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/pull/4809

State: open
Merged: No

Describe your changes

Fixes https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/issues/4808 by extracting the full username by:

  1. Get PID using pgrep
  2. Get UID from PID using /proc/${PID}/loginuid
  3. Get user name from UID using id

Also replaces "complex" pipe from ps to sed with a (hopefully) "simpler" (as in requiring less knowledge about the arguments of ps and regexps) invocation of cat and id.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved robustness of the UI post-install behavior: installation now reliably detects running UI processes and only attempts a restart when appropriate.
    • Strengthened error handling and execution safeguards during installation to prevent unexpected failures and ensure the UI is relaunched under the correct user context when needed.
