Description andipilz 2020-10-28 13:22:18 CET

When UVMM is installed, the following error messages are given:

a) by Email to Admin:

   /etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
   error: Ignoring univention-virtual-machine-manager-daemon because of bad file mode - must be 0644 or 0444.

and b) by entry in syslog

   (*system*univention-virtual-machine-manager-daemon) INSECURE MODE (group/other writable) (/etc/cron.d/univention-virtual-machine-manager-daemon)

Correct setting via chmod works temporarily, but after less than 2 days both are reset to the wrong modes.

Result is, cron-jobs and log rotate do not work correctly.

UVMM and virtualization with UCS is deprecated and will no longer be developed in UCS 4.4; they have already been removed from UCS 5.0.
