* d/p/lp1999816-fix-rabbitmqctl-status-disk-free-timeout.patch: Fix rabbitmqctl status when free disk space cannot be determined (LP: #1999816). -- Jorge Merlino <jorge.merl...@canonical.com> Wed, 22 Feb 2023 19:47:18 -0300 ** Changed in: rabbitmq-server (Ubuntu Focal) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of SE ("STS") Sponsors, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1999816 Title: Failure to get free disk space breaks "rabbitmqctl status" command Status in rabbitmq-server package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in rabbitmq-server source package in Focal: Fix Released Status in rabbitmq-server source package in Jammy: Fix Released Status in rabbitmq-server source package in Kinetic: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] When for some reason the df command fails to get the disk free space (for example timeout on a heavily loaded system) the result is a harcoded value of "unknown". As this is not a valid number this generates arithmetic errors when the "rabbitmqctl status" command is run and tries to divide that value to convert it to another unit. This has been fixed upstream here: https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/pull/4897 [Test Plan] The df command can be linked to another file that just waits for a few minutes to force a timeout for example: [detailed steps in comment #5]. #!/bin/bash sleep 5m After the timeout occurs the "rabbitmqctl status" returns an error with the unpatched version. After the patch it shows all the information and displays unknown in the free space line. [Where problems could occur] The patch just changes the display of information, it should not break anything in the core operations of the package To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rabbitmq-server/+bug/1999816/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~sts-sponsors Post to : sts-sponsors@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~sts-sponsors More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
