Bug#659975: Revert initscript stop function to use SIGINT

2012-02-15 Thread Thomas M Steenholdt
Package: pmacct Version: 0.12.5-4 In the current initscripts, the stop function has been changed to use SIGTERM instead of SIGINT. SIGTERM kicks the processes over in a way, that may cause sampled data not yet pushed to backend storage to be lost. For this reason, please change them back to

Bug#659975: Something like this perhaps?

2012-02-15 Thread Thomas M Steenholdt
Perhaps something like this could be used instead? This has not been thoroughly tested, so consider it a blueprint :-) Idea: Initially, signal only the parent process with the INT signal to let it gracefully end all its child-processes and itself. If the parent process does not terminate within

Bug#659710: sfacctd, nfacctd, uacctd daemons missing initscripts, default-files and sample configs

Package: pmacct Version: 0.12.5-1 At least, sfacctd (mysql plugin) seems to have problems correctly reporting the bytes-count in flows. This results in one-hour byte-counts in excess of 100TB on relatively inactive 4mbit links). I've rebuild using the configure-flags: --enable-64bit

Bug#659710: SIGINT is probably better anyway...

2012-02-13 Thread Thomas M Steenholdt
In the proposed initscripts, I've changed the stop function to use SIGTERM instead of SIGINT. The reason for this is, that I was having some database problems, that left the sfacctd processes running (working), even after sfacct was sent a signal to stop. This could cause old processes to still
