RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
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

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

Please, can you fix this? Adding delaycompress fixes this problem. Also reported for Fedora:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1683981

I'm seeing this as well.  Adding delaycompress seems perfectly reasonable while we wait for upstream fixes.

Current plan is to incorporate this fix to the new mariadb module 10.5 stream.

Since the problem described in this bug report should be
resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a
resolution of ERRATA.

For information on the advisory (new module: mariadb:10.5), and where to find the updated
