Description Gerard Kok 2013-11-21 23:31:41 CET

After upgrading my 3.1 UCS test server to 3.2, I'm getting messages with the following content in my mailbox:

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
error: univention-samba4:38 duplicate log entry for /var/log/samba/log.smbd
error: found error in /var/log/samba/log.smbd , skipping
error: univention-samba4:49 duplicate log entry for /var/log/samba/log.nmbd
error: found error in /var/log/samba/log.nmbd , skipping
error: winbind:1 duplicate log entry for /var/log/samba/log.winbindd
error: found error in /var/log/samba/log.winbindd , skipping

I think this is caused by /var/log/samba/log.smbd, /var/log/samba/log.nmbd and /var/log/samba/log.winbindd being configured to be logrotated in two files: /etc/logrotate.d/samba and /etc/logrotate.d/univention-samba4 (for log.smbd and log.nmbd), and /etc/logrotate.d/winbindd and /etc/logrotate.d/univention-samba4 (for log.winbindd). I suppose the bug can be solved by removing one of the logrotate configurations for each file.

I can confirm that, the very same error mail on a UCS DC Master installed with UCS 3.1/Samba4 and updated to UCS 3.2.

/etc/logrotate.d/samba and /etc/logrotate.d/winbind are config templates of univention-samba4 with the appropriate settings.

-> logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.conf

runs fine after the Update

YAML: errata/2013-11-20-univention-samba4.yaml
univention-samba4: 3.0.39-6.562.201312021513

Ok:
 * logrotate.d subfiles shipped by samba are now diverted and replaced by UCR templates
 * Advisory is ok.
