Bug ID: 10373
Summary: Missing newline at end of config prevents conjob
Classification: Contribs
Product: SME Contribs
Version: 9.2
Hardware: ---
OS: ---
Status: CONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: smeserver-affa
Assignee: arnaud...@guedel.eu
Reporter: jcr...@safeandsoundit.co.uk
QA Contact: contribteam@lists.contribs.org
Target Milestone: ---
I just noticed that one of my affa configs was not running.
I checked the status in the file was enabled but /etc/cron.d/affa showed:
# DISABLED Job Backup; 1.2.3.4, Server Backup
I checked in the logs and found lots of entries like this:
*** Error in job config Backup: Multivalues are not allowed for key
I checked the config files. I have 2 nearly identical and they looked the same.
I decided to diff them and got:
< status=enabled
\ No newline at end of file
---
> status=enabled
I added a newline to the config file, ran affa --make-conjobs and checked the
cronjob to find that the job was now there.
Clearly the /sbin/affa script cannot handle a config file without a newline at
the end of it.
There should really really be a check for this and a sensible error message
displayed (or the lack of new line allowed for)
The section that needs looking at is sub cronSetup() { at line 3463
I had a look, but the perl is way beyond me!
