I am getting the following errors from cron after upgrading my VM to
walinuxagent 2.2.2-0ubuntu0~14.04.1 (the previous version was
2.0.8-0ubuntu1~14.04.0).
- /etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
- error: waagent.logrotate:1 duplicate log entry for /var/log/waagent.log
+ /etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
+ error: waagent.logrotate:1 duplicate log entry for /var/log/waagent.log
Indeed, there are two duplicate logrotate files that both appear to belong to
the walinuxagent package:
- $ dpkg -S /etc/logrotate.d/waagent*
- walinuxagent: /etc/logrotate.d/waagent
- walinuxagent: /etc/logrotate.d/waagent.logrotate
- $ cmp /etc/logrotate.d/waagent*

- rotate 6
