Can you try running 'chkconfig --level 135 rhnsd off' and seeing if that is the actual cause? It isn't the cause. rhnsd has been enabled since I installed the new beta, and it hasn't generated any such messages. Now, that I've just tried to register the machines, hoping a RHN channel would have been set up, I get the messages from logwatch. logwatch-4.3.1-2 does not contain the scripts that should go inside the
/etc/log.d/scripts/logfiles/{autorpm,cron,up2date} directories. One job of these
scripts is to apply to the logs a filter based on the date requested. The rpm
should be updated to include the scripts and the this problem would be resolved.
I have the same problem with the cron section of logwatch reports.
Created attachment 90609 [details]
modification of logwatch.spec to include the missing scripts
logwatch 4.3.2 + your patch will be in rawhide, thanks. Created attachment 95408 [details]
Improved spec file patch to get all scripts/logfiles/* subdirectories
The problem with the previous patch is the directory names are still hardcoded,
even though the list now includes all current scripts/logfiles/*
subdirectories. This will break if any new subdirectories are added in future
source tarballs. A better approach is to borrow the loop that Kirk Bauer uses
in his spec file, and use wildcards in the %files section. See my improved
patch.
Thanks Gilles - that was just what was needed! Patch added after a long delay. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021218 Description of problem: I tried to register my machine a few times before the Phoebe channel was set up in RHN. Since then, I've got messages in the mail every day, from LogWatch, containing the same errors. I suppose these will only go away when logrotate moves them to a separate file, if ever... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1.Try to register a machine in an invalid channel 2.Read LogWatch e-mail every day Actual Results: Every day, it will say something like: ################### LogWatch 4.0.3 (10/14/02) #################### Processing Initiated: Fri Dec 27 04:02:02 2002 Date Range Processed: yesterday [...] --------------------- up2date Begin ------------------------ **Unmatched Entries** [Mon Dec 23 15:46:38 2002] up2date Error communicating with server.
