Disable requiretty and allow user to use command without prompting for password.


If you ever get an error to disable requiretty, you simply need to comment #Defaults requiretty line on the sudoers file.

→ sudo vim /etc/sudoers

→ Comment out requiretty
  #Defaults    requiretty

After disabling requiretty you might need to allow user say (sam) and apache to use the command without prompting for password. For this add following line at the end of the /etc/sudoers file

	
# Apache can check lsof as root for cron_localbatch.php
apache  ALL=NOPASSWD:/usr/sbin/lsof

# used for deployment 
sam ALL=NOPASSWD:/bin/cp
sam ALL=NOPASSWD:/bin/chmod
sam ALL=NOPASSWD:/bin/chown

Hope this Helps!



Done!
