[Bug 662312] Re: Cannot handle spaces in compressoptions
Be warned that @filbo's method sort of requires §compressext xz§ cuz otherwise the XZ-compressed files end in gz but still are xz files. Or at least on 12.04 it does. As an semi-offtopic, I added §nomail§ to not get that uselessness into mail files on the computer, and §notifempty§ is also worth the trouble. The latter is already added to most logrotate configs, and you can find each file which doesn't have, with §grep -L 'notifempty' /etc/logrotate.d/*§. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/662312 Title: Cannot handle spaces in compressoptions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/logrotate/+bug/662312/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 662312] Re: Cannot handle spaces in compressoptions
Testing on saucy, problem no longer exists. This makes sense as it contains logrotate 3.8.3; ability to have spaces in compressoptions was patched in as of debian package version 3.8.1-5. I tried installing the trusty build of logrotate on precise and it failed wanting a slightly newer libacl1. You could go down a rathole of trying to install that (warning, it's likely to want a newer glibc, then you're in a real mess...) Or build newer logrotate from source. Or just temporarily kludge around it, e.g.: compresscmd /usr/local/bin/xz-for-apache-logrotate compressoptions -- # cat > /usr/local/bin/xz-for-apache-logrotate << _EOF_ #!/bin/sh exec xz -vvz9e --lzma2=dict=64MiB,mf=bt4,nice=273 --threads=3 _EOF_ # chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/xz-for-apache-logrotate *IF* those compressoptions were delivered by an apache package that's part of the standard repositories for precise, that's a bug in the apache package. It shouldn't be trying to use options that cannot be parsed by the logrotate of the associated release. If you pulled the package from a forward Ubuntu release, you caused the problem; if it's from a PPA or similar, and you are using it on an Ubuntu release it's documented to be used with, it's a bug in the PPA... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/662312 Title: Cannot handle spaces in compressoptions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/logrotate/+bug/662312/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
