Package: logcheck Version: 1.2.42 Severity: minor Tags: patch Logcheck does not report any error if the config file is not readable or does not exists. This may easily happen, as logcheck is run as logcheck user and while one is testing a new configuration on live system with running configuration intact.
Following fragment may help: # Now source the config file - before things that should not be changed if [ -r $CONFFILE ]; then - . $CONFFILE + . $CONFFILE +else + error "Config file $CONFFILE not exists or readable" fi -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (900, 'stable'), (400, 'testing'), (300, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-rc4 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages logcheck depends on: ii adduser 3.80 Add and remove users and groups ii cron 3.0pl1-92 management of regular background p ii debconf [debconf 1.4.62 Debian configuration management sy ii debianutils 2.15.1 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii grep 2.5.1.ds2-4 GNU grep, egrep and fgrep ii lockfile-progs 0.1.10 Programs for locking and unlocking ii logcheck-databas 1.2.42 database of system log rules for t ii logtail 1.2.42 Print log file lines that have not ii mailx 1:8.1.2-0.20050715cvs-1 A simple mail user agent ii sendmail-bin [ma 8.13.4-3 powerful, efficient, and scalable ii sysklogd [system 1.4.1-17 System Logging Daemon logcheck recommends no packages. -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
