[Bug 1279021] Re: CacheDir setting ignored
Maybe you messed up the permissions of the CONFIG files so your changed setting just cannot be read? Try this: sudo -u apt-cacher-ng apt-cacher-ng debug=7 foreground=1 port=3 And watch the messages. If there is still the old setting visible at the end, add strace -o /tmp/acng.log between apt-cacher-ng's and attach acng.log here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1279021 Title: CacheDir setting ignored To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-cacher-ng/+bug/1279021/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm this is still there with 0.7.27-1. Just create a directory somewhere else, assign the correct permissions, put it into the CacheDir setting of ACNG, restart the service - the new dir won't be used. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1279021 Title: CacheDir setting ignored To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-cacher-ng/+bug/1279021/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1279021] Re: CacheDir setting ignored
hit this too on upgrade, breaking working setups is not nice ... why is it ignoring its main configuration file by default? Also I would prefer .d config files like with most programs instead of having to create some random new file in the config directory (or read up on how to automate debconf) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1279021 Title: CacheDir setting ignored To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-cacher-ng/+bug/1279021/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1279021] Re: CacheDir setting ignored
Which upgrade? 0.7.24 or 0.7.25? .24 might have had a problem but .25 should be alright (just tested, cannot reproduce). Otherwise... provide logs, provide configs, or it didn't happen. And about read up... Lol, just automating debconf somehow by the usual manuals (which only deal with easy single-config-file cases) is not even the half way here. The hard part is to meet the expectations of users who already used multiple config files (and guess what, acng hat it's own scheme already in place without another .d/ hack) and also want to configure some things via debconf but keep others managed manually, and typically different users have different wishes. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1279021 Title: CacheDir setting ignored To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-cacher-ng/+bug/1279021/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Reading NEWS.Debian for you: apt-cacher-ng (0.7.24-1) unstable; urgency=low * Starting with version 0.7.23-1, there is a new sequence of Debconf dialogs for basic settings (CacheDir, Port, Proxy and BindAdresses). They are stored in an additional *.conf file overriding the settings from acng.conf but there is also a way to disable this override. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1279021 Title: CacheDir setting ignored To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-cacher-ng/+bug/1279021/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
