Package: samba Version: 2:3.6.6-5 Severity: normal I keep getting 'gzip: stdin: file size changed while zipping' from the logrotate cron job. It turns out to be /etc/logrotate.d/samba and the postrotate script which does a kill -HUP on nmbd. When I look in the just compressed log it says 'I just got a HUP, I'm dumping some information'.
I don't know what the right fix for this is but I don't think nmbd doing two things on HUP is a good idea. You can work around the gzip warning by adding delaycompress to the logrotate conf. -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 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 samba depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.49 ii dpkg 1.16.9 ii libacl1 2.2.51-8 ii libattr1 1:2.4.46-8 ii libc6 2.13-38 ii libcap2 1:2.22-1.2 ii libcomerr2 1.42.5-1 ii libcups2 1.5.3-2.14 ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.10.1+dfsg-4 ii libk5crypto3 1.10.1+dfsg-4 ii libkrb5-3 1.10.1+dfsg-4 ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.31-1 ii libpam-modules 1.1.3-7.1 ii libpam-runtime 1.1.3-7.1 ii libpam0g 1.1.3-7.1 ii libpopt0 1.16-7 ii libtalloc2 2.0.7+git20120207-1 ii libtdb1 1.2.10-2 ii libwbclient0 2:3.6.6-5 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian8 ii procps 1:3.3.3-2 ii samba-common 2:3.6.6-5 ii update-inetd 4.43 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.7.dfsg-13 Versions of packages samba recommends: ii logrotate 3.8.1-4 ii tdb-tools 1.2.10-2 Versions of packages samba suggests: pn ctdb <none> pn ldb-tools <none> ii openbsd-inetd [inet-superserver] 0.20091229-2 ii smbldap-tools 0.9.7-1 -- debconf information: * samba/run_mode: daemons samba-common/title: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
