Package: xymon-client Version: 4.3.17-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
the client update process from a central plugins-repository fails. In the client-local.cfg on the central xymon-server, the following is configured: [linux] .... clientversion:xc.v3 This tar-file contains tree plugins. Extracting the tar-archive fails: -- /var/log/xymon/xymonclient.log tar: ./clientlaunch.d: Cannot mkdir: Permission denied tar: ./clientlaunch.d: Cannot mkdir: Permission denied tar: ./clientlaunch.d/libs.cfg: Cannot open: No such file or directory tar: ./clientlaunch.d: Cannot mkdir: Permission denied tar: ./clientlaunch.d/entropy.cfg: Cannot open: No such file or directory tar: ./clientlaunch.d: Cannot mkdir: Permission denied tar: ./clientlaunch.d/apt.cfg: Cannot open: No such file or directory tar: ./ext/libs: Cannot open: Permission denied tar: ./ext/apt: Cannot open: Permission denied tar: ./ext/Hobbit.pm: Cannot open: Permission denied tar: ./ext/entropy: Cannot open: Permission denied tar: ./ext: Cannot utime: Operation not permitted tar: .: Cannot utime: Operation not permitted tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors 2014-06-05 13:54:19 Upgrade failed, tar exited with status 512 -- /var/log/xymon/clientlaunch.log 2014-06-05 13:54:12 xymonlaunch starting 2014-06-05 13:54:12 Loading tasklist configuration from /etc/xymon/clientlaunch.cfg 2014-06-05 13:54:19 Task client terminated, status 1 In addition, clientupdate must write the file clientversion.cfg to directory /etc/xymon. The problem could possibly be solved by adding this to the xymon-client.postinst: chown -R xymon:xymon /usr/lib/xymon chown -R xymon:xymon /etc/xymon Thank you, Alex -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.14-1-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xymon-client depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.53 ii libc6 2.18-7 ii libssl1.0.0 1.0.1g-4 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian12 ii procps 1:3.3.9-5 xymon-client recommends no packages.
