Description matthew patton 2013-02-20 02:23:03 UTC

Description of problem:

All logs by definition belong in '/var/log' yet Task-o-Matic logs are written to /var/lib/rhn/tasko/ where they absolutely do not belong. Since this path is non-standard and unexpected, thousands of files can be created and eventually affect filesystem availability.

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

oracle-rhnsat-selinux-10.2.0.16-6.el6sat.noarch
satellite-schema-5.4.0.19-1.el6sat.noarch

How reproducible:
n/a

Steps to Reproduce:
n/a
  
Actual results:
Files placed in /var/lib/rhn/tasko

Expected results:
Files placed in /var/log/rhn/tasko
