Marcus, This error is not reproducible here. The bootchart package will, by default, start the collector in the initramfs, which means the results are written to /dev/.bootchart, not to /var/run/bootchart; this results in the following handling in the upstart stop script:
if [ -d /dev/.bootchart ] then LOGS=/dev/.bootchart/log else LOGS=/var/run/bootchart fi [...] # Gather the output into the tarball /lib/bootchart/gather "$TARBALL" "$LOGS" Is bootchart somehow missing from your initramfs? Are you not using an initramfs that was generated on Ubuntu with the bootchart package installed? Also, it may be best if you file a separate bug report for your issue, as your problem may have a different cause from the bug originally being reported here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/598096 Title: Bootchart does not generate a .tar.gz file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bootchart/+bug/598096/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
