Hi,

 

I found a problem on LTP when I execute ./runltp.

After execute ./runltp, all log files such as /var/log/messages*
disappeared, 

and there is only new log files that were created after the test...

 

This seems a problem that occurs after the "logrotate01" test. 

I found that the past log files disappeared by forcing a rotate (logrotate
-fv $LTPTMP/tst_logrotate.conf).

 

Besides, "logrotate"'s shell script
./testcases/commands/logrotate/logrotate_tests.sh creats 

logrotate configuration file ($LTPTMP/tst_logrotate.conf) for the test, and
this config file includes 

/etc/logrotate.d as follows:

[ ./testcases/commands/logrotate/logrotate_tests.sh line:156~ ]

----------

# create config file.

              cat >$LTPTMP/tst_logrotate.conf <<-EOF

              #****** Begin Config file *******

              # create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones

              create

 

              # compress the log files

              compress

 

              # RPM packages drop log rotation information into this
directory

              include /etc/logrotate.d

 

              /var/log/tst_logfile {

                            rotate 5

                            weekly

              }

              #****** End Config file *******

              EOF

----------

 

By this, not only a log file for the test (/var/log/tst_logfile), but also
30 fies in my system 

such as /var/log/messages* become "logrotate" command target.

Therefore, only a log file for this test must be made a target of the forced
execution of "logrotate".

 

To resolve this problem, we have to change this not to include
/etc/logrotate.d, I think.

And I reflected the point, resend.

Hi,

 

I found a problem on LTP when I execute ./runltp.

After execute ./runltp, all log files such as /var/log/messages*
disappeared, 

and there is only new log files that were created after the test...

 

This seems a problem that occurs after the "logrotate01" test. 

I found that the past log files disappeared by forcing a rotate (logrotate
-fv $LTPTMP/tst_logrotate.conf).

 

Besides, "logrotate"'s shell script
./testcases/commands/logrotate/logrotate_tests.sh creats 

logrotate configuration file ($LTPTMP/tst_logrotate.conf) for the test, and
this config file includes 

/etc/logrotate.d as follows:

[ ./testcases/commands/logrotate/logrotate_tests.sh line:156~ ]

----------

# create config file.

              cat >$LTPTMP/tst_logrotate.conf <<-EOF

              #****** Begin Config file *******

              # create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones

              create

 

              # compress the log files

              compress

 

              # RPM packages drop log rotation information into this
directory

              include /etc/logrotate.d

 

              /var/log/tst_logfile {

                            rotate 5

                            weekly

              }

              #****** End Config file *******
