Command: /usr/bin/smbcontrol winbindd reload-config return value 1 if there is no winbind process.
I believe solution maybe to change in /etc/logrotate.d/winbind from postrotate if [ -x /usr/bin/smbcontrol ]; then /usr/bin/smbcontrol winbindd reload-config elif [ -f /run/samba/winbindd.pid ]; then kill -HUP `cat /run/samba/winbindd.pid` fi endscript to postrotate if [ -f /run/samba/winbindd.pid ]; then if [ -x /usr/bin/smbcontrol ]; then /usr/bin/smbcontrol winbindd reload-config else kill -HUP `cat /run/samba/winbindd.pid` fi fi endscript -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to logrotate in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1953719 Title: logrotate.service fails because it starts before winbind.service Status in logrotate package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have started to play with Prometheus on my Ubuntu 20.04.3. You can configure Prometheus to alert you when a systemd service fails, and in this way I noticed a problem with the logrotate.service immediately after booting the system. I looked with Cockpit, and Cockpit was reporting logrotate.service as "Failed to start". This is the log for logrotate.service : ----8<----8<----8<---- Dez 09 08:00:56 rdiez3 systemd[1]: Starting Rotate log files... Dez 09 08:00:58 rdiez3 logrotate[1760]: Can't find pid for destination 'winbindd' Dez 09 08:00:58 rdiez3 logrotate[1069]: error: error running non-shared postrotate script for /var/log/samba/log.winbindd of '/var/log/samba/log.winbindd ' Dez 09 08:00:58 rdiez3 systemd[1]: logrotate.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE Dez 09 08:00:58 rdiez3 systemd[1]: logrotate.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'. Dez 09 08:00:58 rdiez3 systemd[1]: Failed to start Rotate log files. ----8<----8<----8<---- I then looked at winbind.service , which was fine: ----8<----8<----8<---- Dez 09 08:01:01 rdiez3 systemd[1]: Starting Samba Winbind Daemon... Dez 09 08:01:01 rdiez3 systemd[1]: Started Samba Winbind Daemon. ----8<----8<----8<---- But I noticed that winbind.service started after logrotate.service . I wonder whether this is a service dependency issue. I am using this PC only during normal working hours, and logrotate.timer is set to run at midnight, when the computer will never be turned on. The worry is that this problem could effectively cause the complete log rotation to stop working.
