Description of problem: When upgrading from 1.1.7 to 2.0.2, the install/remove RPM scripts rename all certificates under raddb/certs to have .rpmsave suffix. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.0.2-2.fc9 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. $ apt-get install freeradius#2.0.2-2.fc9 2. $ service radiusd start Actual results: Starting RADIUS server: [FAILED] $ ls /etc/raddb/certs cert-clt.der.rpmsave cert-clt.p12.rpmsave ... Expected results: Should continue to work with old configuration, and specifically not touch manually generated certificates.
I don't believe the Fedora spec file will do this on an upgrade. It is possible to get these .rpmsave files if you removed the previous freeradius rpm prior to installing the new rpm (as opposed to upgrading the existing rpm). Did you do this? If so then the .rpmsave files are correctly renamed because the original rpm was removed (even if only temporarilly). Note in the 1.1.7 spec file all files under /etc/raddb/certs were marked "config noreplace" which would have picked up site specific files, however in the new 2.0.x series only /etc/raddb/certs/*.cnf files are marked "config noreplace". I tend to think the problem you saw was due to a "remove,install" sequence rather than an atomic "upgrade". If this is the case please close this bug, otherwise could you provide more specifics on how you performed the package upgrade because the spec file suggests what you saw happen should not happened.
I used "apt-get upgrade". AFAIK, during upgrade apt installs the new packages first, and removes/cleans up afterwards, so the scenario you outlined is unlikely. I can try reverting to the old version and doing an upgrade using different methods (rpm, yum, apt) several times to get more data.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
