Package: inn2
Version: 2.4.2-3
Severity: normal
When innfeed's log reaches 2G (actually, 2.2G according to ls --si),
it begins to silently die whenever it is started. As news.daily does
not rotate the innfeed log, and there's no logrotate entry, this is a
problem.
Suggested fix: add a logrotate entry in /etc/logrotate.d to rotate the
file whenever it reaches 1G. Here's the config file I wrote just now
and added to /etc/logrotate.d:
/var/log/news/innfeed.log {
monthly
rotate 5
olddir /var/log/news/OLD
missingok
size 1G
postrotate
/usr/sbin/ctlinnd reload all "innfeed.log/nnrpsend.log logfile
rotation"
endscript
compress
}
