Subject: 2.5.8 pre3 chown problem
Date: Sun, 14 Apr 2002 21:38:13 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020414193813.GA668@gouv> (raw)
I tried 2.5.8 pre3 and exim stopped working!
I found the problem was that logrotate is unable to change
exim's mainlog owner from root to mail. So i made a little test:
gouv:~# touch junk
gouv:~# ls -l junk
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 avr 14 21:30 junk
gouv:~# chown mail.adm junk
gouv:~# echo $?
0
gouv:~# ls -l junk
-rw-r--r-- 1 root adm 0 avr 14 21:30 junk
gouv:~# chown --version
chown (fileutils) 4.1

gouv:~# bash --version
GNU bash, version 2.05a.0(1)-release (i386-pc-linux-gnu)

file system is ext 2
I reverted to 2.5.7 and everyting worked as expected
