Description Matyas Selmeci 2015-02-18 17:12:44 UTC
Created attachment 993239 [details]
patch for the init script to work around issue

Description of problem:
The globus-scheduler-event-generator daemon hangs looking for log files in a directory that had been moved: previous versions of the SEG used to keep logfiles under /var/lib/globus/*-seg-*, whereas the current version keeps logfiles in /var/log/globus/*-seg-*.

See also https://globus.atlassian.net/browse/GT-583, which has more details and reproduction instructions.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

5.9-1, 5.10-1

How reproducible:
Always

Additional info:

I've attached a patch with a workaround: this is a modification to the init script (which creates the log directories in the first place) to create a symlink to the new location from the old location.
