Hi, Does anyone use aide from SL repo? It has version 0.14 and creates corrupt initial database. To reproduce the problem: # yum install aide # aide -i # cd /var/lib/aide # mv aide.db.new.gz aide.db.gz # aide Output is: Error reading gzipped file: <fd:5>: buffer error # gzip -t /var/lib/aide/aide.db.gz gzip: /var/lib/aide/aide.db.gz: unexpected end of file Relevant TUV bug report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=574764 Solution: - update to version 14-2 (fc14) My workaround with this version: - disable compression in /etc/aide.conf --------------------------------------------------------- diff -u /etc/aide.conf.orig /etc/aide.conf --- /etc/aide.conf.orig 2012-07-23 11:54:02.951061516 +0200 +++ /etc/aide.conf 2012-07-23 11:53:40.855027455 +0200 @@ -4,15 +4,17 @@ @@define LOGDIR /var/log/aide # The location of the database to be read. -database=file:@@{DBDIR}/aide.db.gz +#database=file:@@{DBDIR}/aide.db.gz +database=file:@@{DBDIR}/aide.db # The location of the database to be written. #database_out=sql:host:port:database:login_name:passwd:table #database_out=file:aide.db.new -database_out=file:@@{DBDIR}/aide.db.new.gz +#database_out=file:@@{DBDIR}/aide.db.new.gz +database_out=file:@@{DBDIR}/aide.db.new # Whether to gzip the output to database -gzip_dbout=yes +#gzip_dbout=yes # Default. verbose=5 --------------------------------------------------------- Could anyone confirm that the official version from SL repo is buggy at you too? @devs: is it in plan to update the pkg? Thanks! Andras
