Description Jan ONDREJ 2019-11-14 07:41:31 UTC

Consider using "delaycompress" in mariadb logrotate script. Sometimes fails with an error. Reported on CentOS 8.0

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mariadb-10.3.11-2.module_el8.0.0+35+6f2527ed.x86_64

How reproducible:
sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. just run mairadb

Actual results:
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:

error: Compressing program wrote following message to stderr when compressing
log /var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log-20191114:
gzip: stdin: file size changed while zipping

Comment 1 Terry Barnaby 2020-08-05 06:25:11 UTC
I am also seeing this on CentOS Linux release 8.2.2004 (Core)

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:

error: Compressing program wrote following message to stderr when compressing log /var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log-20200805:
gzip: stdin: file size changed while zipping

Comment 3 Jan ONDREJ 2020-12-08 05:51:30 UTC
Please, can you fix this? Adding delaycompress fixes this problem. Also reported for Fedora:

Comment 4 Orion Poplawski 2021-02-05 16:33:22 UTC
I'm seeing this as well.  Adding delaycompress seems perfectly reasonable while we wait for upstream fixes.

Comment 5 Michal Schorm 2021-02-18 11:53:13 UTC
Current plan is to incorporate this fix to the new mariadb module 10.5 stream.
