missing logrotate script
Last modified: 2014-12-16 11:34:53 EST
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #904059 +++ Description of problem: Mysql packages do not provide logrotate configuration file. Looking at bug #647223 comment #16 I understand that as it should be included after the problem with rotating logs gets fixed. The problem got fixed already but we still do not provide /etc/logrotate.d/mysqld Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mysql-5.0.95-5.el5_9 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install mysql-server 2. uncomment the configuration in /etc/logrotate.d/mysqld 3. logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.d/mysqld Actual results: 2. no file to edit 3. error: cannot stat /etc/logrotate.d/mysqld: No such file or directory Expected results: no error; once the server runs and writes logfile, logs get rotated after logrotate call Additional info:
It looks like we fixed this in Fedora and RHEL5, but the fix never made it into the RHEL6 branch ... which makes this a regression from RHEL5 to RHEL6. Oops.
How to reproduce: 1) (uncomment related lines in /etc/logrotate.d/mysqld) 2) # logrotate /etc/logrotate.d/mysqld -f 3) # echo $? 4) # ls -l /var/log/mysqld.log* Actual results: error: cannot stat /etc/logrotate.d/mysqld: No such file or directory 1 -rw-r-----. 1 mysql mysql 25910 Aug 9 10:07 /var/log/mysqld.log Expected results: 0 -rw-r-----. 1 mysql mysql 0 Aug 9 10:14 /var/log/mysqld.log -rw-r-----. 1 mysql mysql 2546 Aug 9 10:14 /var/log/mysqld.log.1.gz
