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:
MariaDB logrotate may end like this:
--- snipp ---
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
error: Compressing program wrote following message to stderr when compressing log /var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log-20211017:
gzip: stdin: file size changed while zipping
--- snapp ---
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mariadb-server-10.3.28-1.module+el8.3.0+10472+7adc332a.x86_64
How reproducible:
Always.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Ensure MariaDB logging to /var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log
Actual results:
MariaDB logrotate leads to "gzip: stdin: file size changed while zipping"
Expected results:
MariaDB logrotate must not lead to "gzip: stdin: file size changed while zipping"
Additional info:
This issue has been already fixed using the logrotate "delaycompress" functionality in Fedora and CentOS 9 Stream.
Thank you for the report. I see "delaycompress" option is available in the version of logrotate that is in RHEL-8, so I don't see why this would be a problem to add it to RHEL-8 packages as well.
