Package: munin Version: 1.2.3-3 Severity: minor
Recently a munin installation began spitting out tons of cron mail. This time it was: print() on closed filehandle STATS at /usr/share/munin/munin-graph line 1125. print() on closed filehandle STATS at /usr/share/munin/munin-graph line 1125. print() on closed filehandle STATS at /usr/share/munin/munin-graph line 1125. print() on closed filehandle STATS at /usr/share/munin/munin-graph line 396. .. and the like, over and over. Line numbers are from 1.2.3-1. I found out that /var/lib/munin/ had changed ownership to root.root during some changes and I believe munin apparently could no longer create the tmp files on it. unless ($skip_stats) { open (STATS,">$config->{dbdir}/munin-graph.stats.tmp") or logger("Unable to open $config->{dbdir}/munin-graph.stats.tmp"); } The entry really does appear in munin logs (from whence even logcheck won't pull it by default) and does not enter the cron output. This leads to somewhat baffling a situation, but it doesn't seem too hard to dig out more detail. Just an odd situation that causes odd behaviour. Thought I'd report it if someone wants to improve the error reporting in these kind of cases. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (900, 'stable'), (400, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.10-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_GB, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages munin depends on: ii adduser 3.67 Add and remove users and groups pn libdigest-md5-perl <none> (no description available) ii libhtml-template-perl 2.6-2 HTML::Template : A module for usin ii librrds-perl 1.0.49-1 Time-series data storage and displ pn libtime-hires-perl <none> (no description available) ii perl [libstorable-perl] 5.8.7-3 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii perl-modules 5.8.7-3 Core Perl modules ii rrdtool 1.0.49-1 Time-series data storage and displ Versions of packages munin recommends: pn libdate-manip-perl <none> (no description available) ii munin-node 1.2.3-3 network-wide graphing framework (n -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
