[Bug 1883489] Re: Logrotate failed to start in LUbuntu 20.04
This problem is related to MYSQL. The privileges of 'debian-sys-maint' user are too scanty. The workaround is found at http://hobbymods.ru/article/linux/osibka-error-running-shared-postrotate-script-for-varlogmysqllog-varlogmysqlmysq with some changes due to the modern syntax: 1. Get the password for user 'debian-sys-maint': sudo grep -m 1 password /etc/mysql/debian.cnf | cut -d" " -f3 The password should be displayed. Copy it 2. Configure MySQL: sudo mysql --user=root mysql 2.1. In MYSQL environment set the propper password ALTER USER 'debian-sys-maint'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'Paste the copied password'; flush privileges; 2.2. Reconfigure the user privileges: GRANT RELOAD, SHUTDOWN, PROCESS, SHOW DATABASES, SUPER, LOCK TABLES ON *.* TO 'debian-sys-maint'@'localhost'; flush privileges; exit 3. Test the operation. Should be OK (no output) sudo logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.conf I did not check, is the password proper by default (now it is impossible). If yes, only steps 2.2 and 3 are necessary. It can be tested only before step 2.1. If the settings for 'debian-sys-maint' are secure, they should be set by default at the installation of (L/K/X)Ubunutu 20.04. If the settings are vulnerable, another solution should be found. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1883489 Title: Logrotate failed to start in LUbuntu 20.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1883489/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
