Package: amavis-stats Version: 0.1.12-7.2 Severity: normal Hello,
Due to some reason i haven't identified(*), amavis-stats' state-file contained an incorrect offset value, which points to the middle a of a line of the log file. Therefore, when amavis-stats tries to parse the line, it dies with error message (then mailed by Cron Daemon) : [..] amavis-stats: parseFile (/var/log/mail.info, 235, 63385) amavis-stats: lock /var/lock/amavis-stats removed amavis-stats: Unknown month "" (current locale is "C") # head -n 2 /var/log/mail.info Dec 10 06:55:01 slxmrml1 amavis[4168]: (04168-04) Passed CLEAN, [64.56.70.119] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, mail_id: sA+RmInUjoa3, Hits: -, queued_as: 250 OK id=1GtHeP-0002GK-RE, 306 ms Dec 10 07:02:32 slxmrml1 amavis[4787]: (04787-04) Passed CLEAN, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, mail_id: DVSRaN2MiRd9, Hits: -, queued_as: 250 OK id=1GtHlg-0002Yo-BG, 258 ms note : offset 235 is right after "Dec 10 07:02:32 slxmrml1" but before "amavis[4168]" so, the test /usr/bin/amavis-stats line 624 : if ($line =~ /amavis.*?\[\d+\]:/) { is valid ! I guess it should be safer to make sure that the offset is right after an "\n" when the state file is loaded. regards, Franklin (*) I have recently upgraded to Etch, but i'm not sure it's related.. it my just be a race condition. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-486 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages amavis-stats depends on: ii adduser 3.100 Add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.8 Debian configuration management sy ii librrds-perl 1.2.15-0.2 Time-series data storage and displ ii rrdtool 1.2.15-0.2 Time-series data storage and displ ii wwwconfig-common 0.0.48 Debian web auto configuration Versions of packages amavis-stats recommends: ii amavisd-new [amavis] 1:2.4.2-5 Interface between MTA and virus sc -- debconf information: * amavis-stats/stay_on_purge: false * amavis-stats/config_apache: None -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
