Hi,
I found a problem on LTP when I execute ./runltp.
After execute ./runltp, all log files such as /var/log/messages*
disappeared,
and there is only new log files that were created after the test...
This seems a problem that occurs after the "logrotate01" test.
I found that the past log files disappeared by forcing a rotate (logrotate
-fv $LTPTMP/tst_logrotate.conf).
Besides, "logrotate"'s shell script
./testcases/commands/logrotate/logrotate_tests.sh creats
logrotate configuration file ($LTPTMP/tst_logrotate.conf) for the test, and
this config file includes
/etc/logrotate.d as follows:
[ ./testcases/commands/logrotate/logrotate_tests.sh line:156~ ]
----------
# create config file.
cat >$LTPTMP/tst_logrotate.conf <<-EOF
#****** Begin Config file *******
# create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones
create
# compress the log files
compress
# RPM packages drop log rotation information into this
directory
include /etc/logrotate.d
/var/log/tst_logfile {
rotate 5
weekly
}
#****** End Config file *******
EOF
----------
By this, not only a log file for the test (/var/log/tst_logfile), but also
30 fies in my system
such as /var/log/messages* become "logrotate" command target.
Therefore, only a log file for this test must be made a target of the forced
execution of "logrotate".
To resolve this problem, we have to change this not to include
/etc/logrotate.d, I think.
