Package: smokeping
Version: 2.7.3-1
Severity: serious
Hi,
sorry for the late report, but smokeping failed to configure (probably
after the recent upgrade) for a few days for me now:
# dpkg --configure -a
Setting up smokeping (2.7.3-1) ...
apache2_invoke: Enable module cgi
[ ok ] Restarting Apache httpd web server: apache2
apache2_invoke smokeping: already enabled
[ ok ] Reloading Apache httpd web server: apache2.
[....] Shutting down latency logger daemon: smokepingstart-stop-daemon:
matching only on non-root pidfile /var/run/smokeping/smokeping.pid is insecure
failed!
invoke-rc.d: initscript smokeping, action "restart" failed.
dpkg: error processing package smokeping (--configure):
installed smokeping package post-installation script subprocess returned error
exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
smokeping
# ls -l /var/run/smokeping/smokeping.pid
-rw-r--r-- 1 smokeping smokeping 5 Jan 21 17:50 /var/run/smokeping/smokeping.pid
This seems to happen since dpkg 1.19.3. According changelog entry:
* start-stop-daemon: Check whether standalone --pidfile use is secure.
