Description

Observation

On monitor.qa.suse.de systemctl --failed shows that logrotate fails, `systemctl status logrotate shows:

● logrotate.service - Rotate log files
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/logrotate.service; static; vendor preset: disabled)
   Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Mon 2020-11-16 00:00:07 CET; 22h ago

I wonder what we even use mariadb for. lsof -p $pid_of_mysql showed a lot of /var/lib/mysql/icinga2_director . I assume this is old and unused?

grep -iR icinga /etc/apache2 /etc/nginx showed /etc/nginx/vhosts.d/01-icingaweb2.conf which reveals that http://icinga.qa.suse.de/ is the relevant domain which actually resolves but yields "502 Bad Gateway".

Suggestions

  • Find out if we need that
  • If no, delete packages like icinga2, mariadb, mysql, etc. , and see if logrotate works again
  • If yes, fix logrotate access

he said that likely not needed, I could check existing database content. With sudo -u mysql mysql and the SQL command show databases; I found only a "test" database so likely we can easily remove everything here :) I did that now and so I would not expect logrotate to fail on mariadb/mysql anymore.
