I've been having the same problem. Just tonight I found what it is. I have php4-cli installed, and executing "/usr/bin/php" caused some warnings:
PHP Warning: mime_magic: type search/400 \\input text/x-tex invalid in Unknown on line 0 PHP Warning: mime_magic: type search/400 \\section text/x-tex invalid in Unknown on line 0 PHP Warning: mime_magic: type search/400 \\setlength text/x-tex invalid in Unknown on line 0 PHP Warning: mime_magic: type search/400 \\documentstyle text/x-tex invalid in Unknown on line 0 PHP Warning: mime_magic: type search/400 \\chapter text/x-tex invalid in Unknown on line 0 PHP Warning: mime_magic: type search/400 \\documentclass text/x-tex invalid in Unknown on line 0 PHP Warning: mime_magic: type regex [Cc]onstant[[:space:]]+[Ss]torytext/x-inform invalid in Unknown on line 0 These warnings messes up rkhunter script. The solution for me was to remove php4-cli (I removed php4-common, which removes all php4 packagess), and install php5-cli. Now rkhunter output is much better for me. I hope this helps. -- /etc/cron.daily/rkhunter fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/232129 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
