Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: mrtg
On current Lucid, on every reboot I get the following error from mrtg:
2010-03-23 13:15:37: ERROR: Creating templock
/var/lock/mrtg/_etc_mrtg.cfg_l_1770: No such file or directory at
/usr/bin/mrtg line 1833.
followed by:
2010-03-23 13:05:11: ERROR: I guess another mrtg is running. A lockfile
(/var/lock/mrtg/_etc_mrtg.cfg_l) aged
263 seconds is hanging around. If you are sure that no other mrtg
is running you can remove the lockfile
followed by:
2010-03-23 13:20:08: ERROR: Creating templock
/var/lock/mrtg/_etc_mrtg.cfg_l_2934: No such file or directory at
/usr/bin/mrtg line 1833.
Upon inspection, clearly the problem is that /var/lock/mrtg does not
exist:
# ls -l /var/lock/
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data root 40 2010-03-23 13:16 apache2
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 19 2010-03-23 13:16 LCK..ttyS1
drwxr-xr-x 2 logcheck logcheck 40 2010-03-23 13:21 logcheck
drwx------ 2 root root 40 2010-03-23 13:16 lvm
and indeed, creating it keeps mrtg happy:
# mkdir /var/lock/mrtg/
Presumably this is something that the mrtg package needs to be doing on
each reboot.
