Package: logrotate
Version: 3.7.1-3
- System information:
# uname -a
Linux correo 2.6.18-6-amd64 #1 SMP Mon Oct 13 18:13:07 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux
# dpkg -s libc6 | grep ^Version
Version: 2.3.6.ds1-13etch7
- Description:
When you configure logrotate with mailfirst option and delaycompress, the
program dont send the log to the specific email address, because it looks at
for a .gz file, which doesnt exits (It hasn´t been compressed yet).
It´s something about this in this closed bugreport:
Refer: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=186818
- Bug reprodution:
* Edit /etc/logrotate.conf and add this lines with a real format email address:
/var/log/mail.log {
dateext
mailfirst
mail janzun.rosanegra dt rosanegra dt org
missingok
daily
rotate 365
create
compress
delaycompress
start 0
}
* Executing logrotate you´ll see the error line:
# logrotate /etc/logrotate.conf -f
error: failed to open /var/log/mail.log-20081030.gz for mailing: No such file
or directory
Obviously file *gz doesnt exist because delaycompress is active and "yesterday"
log isnt compressed.
- Bad solution: Comment delaycompress directive, but i dont like this.
- Temporary solution for me is to comment "mail" directive and run a tiny
postrotate script like this:
/var/log/mail.log {
dateext
# mailfirst
# mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
missingok
daily
rotate 365
create
compress
delaycompress
start 0
postrotate
T_FILE="${1}-$(date +%Y%m%d)"
bzip2 -k $T_FILE
uuencode ${T_FILE}.bz2 ${T_FILE}.bz2 |mail -s "Mail log subject
here" [EMAIL PROTECTED]
rm ${T_FILE}.bz2
endscript
}
Its some different that the original function, because I have "yesterday" log
decompressed in the system but compressed in backup email, and archive.log is
adjunted, not printed in body message.
- For a real and origin function reproduction, it should be:
# Script
postrotate
T_FILE="${1}-$(date +%Y%m%d)"
echo $T_FILE |mail -s "Mail log subject here" [EMAIL PROTECTED]
endscript
# /Script
Thank you very much for your effor maintaining this package, and sorry for my
english.
Regards,
Jesús Feliz Fernández.

Changes:
logrotate (3.7.7-1) experimental; urgency=low
.
* New upstream release (based on upstream 3.7.7-1)
+ The source code has been run through "indent" which makes looking
for differences "interesting".
+ Debian patches no longer required:
- compress-499502.patch: upstream has fix.
- globfix-277652: upstream has a fix. In addition, logrotate will
attempt to continue rather than stopping dead if there are any
errors in its config files. (Closes: #285858)
- script-argument.patch: upstream has fixed this.
- rh-dateext.patch: upstream has it.
- rh-maxage.patch: upstream has it.
- rh-noTMPDIR.patch: upstream has it.
- rh-selinux.patch: upstream has it.
- taboo-to-debug.patch: upstream has it.
- scripterrors.patch: upstream has fix.
- man-lastaction.patch: upstream has it.
- man-mailtypo.patch: upstream has it.
- man-rh-1.patch: upstream has it.
- man-333996.patch: upstream has fix.
+ New features:
- yearly rotations
- minsize
- optionally use shred when deleting files
- dateformat, to control the date format when using dateext
- Tabooexts can be wildcards.
+ Upstream fixes:
- Manpage fixed for example using /var/log/news. (Closes: #339502)
.
* dateext-504079.patch: If dateext is used with delaycompress and
mailfirst, the wrong filename (one that has compressext added) is
attempted to be mailed. (Closes: #504079,#433496)
* dst.patch: Update to add the current "hour" to the struct tm, so
that DST changes don't cause the date to be off by one.
(Closes: #416177)
* Corrected upstream URL (Closes: #410420)
* deb-taboos.patch: added .cfsaved to taboo list. (Closes: #463581)
