openSUSE 12.2: WebYaST filling /var/log/messages with similar error (non stop)

English Applications

Hi,

I managed to get WebYaST up and running. All modules except ‘Roles’ are working fine but the service keeps filling my log file /var/log/messages with lines like these:


Nov 20 00:02:24 my_host collectd[900]: rrdtool plugin: rrd_update_r (WebYaST/df-root/df_complex-used.rrd) failed: WebYaST/df-root/df_complex-used.rrd: illegal attempt to update using time 1353366144 when last update time is 1353366144 (minimum one second step)

It has no influence on the tool itself, I can use it the way it is intended to be used, but this makes finding error in de log file from other services hard to find.
Googled for a solution or root cause but could not find any.

What’s happening here?

I think there is a yast mail list. You could try asking there.

Let me say that with openSUSE version 12.2 I also gave this application a try and it is obvious it has several problems. Since you have a GUI and CLI YaST version, I decided I did not need a third and unloaded it all. If you really want to use this, I suggest you learn all you can about it and start posting bug reports on its function here: Bugzilla Main Page You never know, it might become a great feature in our net openSUSE 12.3 version. But until then, I can’t recommend you waste any effort trying to use WebYaST.

Thank You,

Ok, thanks.
I will consider this as buggy software and use Webmin instead.

Be a good community member and report those bugs in Bugzilla.

Hi !
The problem is not WebYast

It belongs to “collectd”

You can solve it in to ways:

1 - Edit “/etc/collectd.conf” and comment the “LoadPlugin df” (mine is on line 72). This way the DF Plugin from collectd will not be loaded.

2 - Edit “/etc/collectd.conf” and validate and activate de “df” plugin, by editing the “<Plugin df>” tag with valid parameters. I added my “/home” partition and got rid from WebYast and df rrdtool messages.

Good luck.

PS. I’m using

cat /etc/SuSE-release
openSUSE 12.2 (x86_64)
VERSION = 12.2
CODENAME = Mantis

rpm -q collectd
collectd-5.0.4-39.1.x86_64

Thanks.

But somebody having this problem has to report it officially on
bugzilla, or it will never be solved.
