Package: aide Version: 0.10-6 Severity: normal After upgrading from 0.10-4 to the 0.10-6 version of the aide package the following error was generated from the nightly cron script.
From: Cron Daemon Date: Wed, 2 Feb 2005 06:33:44 -0700 (MST) To: root Subject: Cron <root> test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily /etc/cron.daily/aide: grep: /var/lib/aide/aide.conf.autogenerated: No such file or directory My /etc/aide files are as follows: find /etc/aide /etc/aide /etc/aide/aide.conf.d /etc/aide/aide.conf At the first time that the /etc/cron.daily/aide script is run the autogenerated configuration file is not yet present. The /usr/bin/aide script wrapper has not yet run and the new update-aide.conf has not yet generated the new autogenerated file. This then caused the DATABASE variable to be empty. However my database is at the default location and the setting of default values after that point recovered and running /usr/bin/aide then ran update-aide.conf which created the autogenerated config file. Perhaps the following addition to the cron script would be appropriate? Ensure that /var/lib/aide/aide.conf.autogenerated is always created by the cron script? update-aide.conf DATABASE=`grep "^database=file:/" $CONFFILE | head -1 | cut --delimiter=: --fields=2` Bob Proulx <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.proulx.com/~bob/ -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-10-amd64-k8 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages aide depends on: ii debconf 1.4.42 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20.0.0.1.pure64 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii mailx 1:8.1.2-0.20040524cvs-4 A simple mail user agent -- debconf information: aide/aideinit: false * aide/mustaideinit: aideinit/copynew: false aideinit/overwritenew: true aide/newlibdir: false * aide/setmailaddress: aideinit/warnnew: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
