--- Begin Message ---Package: exim4-base Version: 4.84.2-2+deb* Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, Reporting this bug on a personal system because I observed it at work, but my current employer requires some confidentiality. Bug seems to apply in multiple package versions. There appears to be a logical error in /etc/cron.daily/exim4-base such that it will not rotate /var/log/exim4/paniclog if it is full of *only* lines that are ignored by virtue of $E4BCD_PANICLOG_NOISE. I think the block that performs log rotation should be contingent only on the log having something in it, not on there being any non-noise lines in it, that would be alerted about, to make this bug go away. So I think those 3 lines ought to be moved down below the 'fi' immediately beneath them. *** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? Stupid emails causing paniclog to be full of stuff ignored by setting $E4BCD_PANICLOG_NOISE. Which results in the 'grep -vq' call returning a failure exit code. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Doing $E4BCD_PANICLOG_NOISE to begin with was one mitigation, but it does not respect the 'once' mode of $E4BCD_WATCH_PANICLOG so warning emails keep coming until manual intervention is done. * What was the outcome of this action? Not quite enough. * What outcome did you expect instead? Paniclog to rotate and thus to only receive one email about the same errors. *** End of the template - remove these lines *** -- Package-specific info: Exim version 4.80 #3 built 10-Feb-2018 15:37:27 Copyright (c) University of Cambridge, 1995 - 2012 (c) The Exim Maintainers and contributors in ACKNOWLEDGMENTS file, 2007 - 2012 Berkeley DB: Berkeley DB 5.1.29: (October 25, 2011) Support for: crypteq iconv() IPv6 GnuTLS move_frozen_messages DKIM Lookups (built-in): lsearch wildlsearch nwildlsearch iplsearch cdb dbm dbmjz dbmnz dnsdb dsearch nis nis0 passwd Authenticators: cram_md5 plaintext Routers: accept dnslookup ipliteral manualroute queryprogram redirect Transports: appendfile/maildir/mailstore autoreply lmtp pipe smtp Fixed never_users: 0 Size of off_t: 8 Configuration file is /var/lib/exim4/config.autogenerated -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.11 APT prefers oldoldstable APT policy: (500, 'oldoldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages exim4-base depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii cron 3.0pl1-124 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.49 ii exim4-config [exim4-config-2] 4.80-7+deb7u6 ii libc6 2.13-38+deb7u12 ii libdb5.1 5.1.29-5+deb7u1 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian8+deb7u1 ii netbase 5.0 Versions of packages exim4-base recommends: ii bsd-mailx [mailx] 8.1.2-0.20111106cvs-1+deb7u1 ii perl-modules 5.14.2-21+deb7u5 ii psmisc 22.19-1+deb7u1 Versions of packages exim4-base suggests: ii bsd-mailx [mail-reader] 8.1.2-0.20111106cvs-1+deb7u1 pn exim4-doc-html | exim4-doc-info <none> pn eximon4 <none> ii file 5.11-2+deb7u9 ii mutt [mail-reader] 1.5.21-6.2+deb7u3 ii openssl 1.0.1t-1+deb7u4 pn spf-tools-perl <none> pn swaks <none> -- debconf information: exim4/purge_spool: false exim4-base/drec:
