I've had two Ubuntu system suffer this problem to the extent that the / filesystem runs out of space, and in one case resulting in corruption of a MySQL database. In future I plan to put /var/log in a seperate partition, but an alternative solution would indeed be desirable.
I don't agree that simply increasing the frequency of log rotations is an adequate solution. -- log growing too big, syslogd freezes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/71870 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
