Package: postgresql Version: 7.4.7-6sarge1 Severity: normal Please see #368335 for a install history.
Currently I have three postgresql-related files in /etc/logrotate/:
postgresql: /etc/logrotate.d/postgresql
postgresql-common: /etc/logrotate.d/postgresql-common
postgresql-contrib: /etc/logrotate.d/postgresql-contrib
The first rotates /var/log/postgresql/postgres.log, the second
/var/log/postgresql/*.log and the third
/var/log/postgresql/autovacuum_log. Clearly the first and second try
to rotate the same file (I don't know if "." has the meaning of one
character or a literal dot (the man page of logrotate is not specific
here), but I assume the latter, hence -contrib does not pose a
problem.
Logrotate tells me now:
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
error: postgresql-common:1 duplicate log entry for
+/var/log/postgresql/postgres.log
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate exited with return code 1
I set this as "normal" instead of "minor" because I don't know if
there are (corner) cases where this might cause data loss or DOS for
the postgres-server (both of which I doubt). Please re-adjust severity
if necessary.
Also maybe re-assign to to both postgresql and postgresql-common
(reportbug refused to do this for me).
