description |
Since upgrade to jaunty I have problems with one desktop (9.04/amd-64).
The session was running for several hours/days and the screen-locker has locked the terminal.
Login is not possible (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pam/+bug/270781).
The cause is that /dev/null is replaced with a "normal" file.
The original /dev/null is moved to /dev/null.1
This issue is intended to track down the cause which leads to the corruption of the /dev/null device. |
IMPACT:
If logrotate is unable to find the logs it is expecting, it will incorrectly rotate /dev/null -> /dev/null. This can cause the session to become totally locked. Login is not possible (see bug #270781).
ADDRESSED:
A patch cherry picked from >Maverick packages resolves the config parsing when the wildcard produces an empty set (which defaulted to /dev/null).
PATCH:
See Merge proposal
TEST CASE:
Install apache2-commons (which includes a logrotate config), but have no apache running -> therefore no logs to rotate. Wait, or induce a log rotation and witness /dev/null be rotated to /dev/null.1.
REGRESSION POTENTIAL:
This should be considered low, the attached resolution has been in Debian since March 2010 and is in the Maverick release.
