Starting RRDtool data caching daemon: rrdcached/etc/init.d/rrdcached: line 57: 6905 Segmentation fault (core dumped) start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --oknodo --pidfile "$PIDFILE" --exec $DAEMON -- $OPTS -p "$PIDFILE" invoke-rc.d: initscript rrdcached, action "start" failed. dpkg: error processing rrdcached (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 139 Errors were encountered while processing: rrdcached E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) This error occurs because the initscript runs rrdcached with -j /var/lib/rrdcached/journal, which causes rrdcached to segfault if this directory does not exist. Simply creating the directory /var/lib/rrdcached/journal during installation solves the problem. ** Affects: rrdtool (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to rrdtool in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1048344 Title: rrdcached installaion fails due to segfault running initscript To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rrdtool/+bug/1048344/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
