Bug #4109
closed
/etc/cron.d/rudder-agent is not installed on Debian/Ubuntu
Added by Vincent MEMBRÉ over 10 years ago. Updated about 9 years ago.
Description
The new cron file used for 2.8 is not added when upgrading to Rudder 2.8 is not created (was upgrading from Rudder 2.4)
I thnik the file is not handled on installation by the packaging.
Line when upgrading is:
grep: /etc/cron.d/rudder-agent: No such file or directory
corresponding to line 101 in debian postinst:
CHECK_RUDDER_AGENT_CRON=`grep "/opt/rudder/bin/check-rudder-agent" /etc/cron.d/rudder-agent | wc -l`
Debian base nodes ill don't get advantage from that cron file

This is definitely a bug in check-rudder-agent. We should not display errors about No such file, and we should not say we're recovering from a non-existant file.
However, there is something else going on here - after upgrading to 2.8, the /etc/cron.d/rudder-agent should definitely exist.

- Subject changed from When agent installed/updated to 2.8 on Debian "/etc/cron.d/rudder-agent" is missing to /etc/cron.d/rudder-agent is not installed.
- Status changed from 8 to In progress
- Assignee changed from Matthieu CERDA to Vincent MEMBRÉ
- Target version changed from 2.8.0~rc2 to 2.6.9
It also happens on install and in all version > 2.6. fixing this immediatly.
It was not installed because dh_installcron takes files name "package.cron.*" not "package.cron".
We need to change the makefile in rudder-agent.

See dh_installcron man page : http://www.tin.org/bin/man.cgi?section=1&topic=dh_installcron
I just changed the name of the file when copied to "debian" directory, so the spec file can still use file rudder-agent.cron in the root directory.

When was this bug introduced? How long has it been since we didn't install the cron file?

Wow, so it never actually installed the cron file on Debian... Oops... Fortunately, the cron file is installed by CFEngine minutes after the initial installation.
