Subject: aide uses invalid command

Date: Thu, 16 Aug 2007 16:35:06 -0400

Package: aide
Version: 1.13.1-02

When the aide cron script runs, it produces the following output:

# /etc/cron.daily/aide 
/etc/cron.daily/aide: line 117: onexit: command not found
/etc/cron.daily/aide: line 61: onexit: command not found

onexit does not appear to be a valid bash command.

Using the latest Debian Etch

onexit is a local function in the aide daily cron job. Most probably,
this is a bug that is already fixed in sid.

Can you show me your /etc/default/aide, and maybe the output of
bash -x /etc/cron.daily/aide?

Greetings

Hi Marc,

I recently transitioned from sarge to etch and I also get Michael's
error.

You haven't created the aide database. The onexit error is a corollary
error since your cron job fails so early that the onexit function has
not yet been defined.

A server I maintain started getting this after the latest update to etch.
Aide was running normally pre-upgrade, and the only things that were
changed on the system were libc6 and cpio -- but the update was the only
thing that changed before I started getting these messages.

Checking manually, the /var/lib/aide/aide.db file existed, so I'm not sure
what was going on.

I uninstalled and re-installed Aide, and the onexit error messages went away.

Just another data point.

For what it's worth, a full re-installation (after a dpkg purge) fixed 
AIDE for me.  Thanks,

You updated from an older broken version and did not allow the bug fix
(which was in a dpkg-conffile) to be installed.

It was actually a completely fresh install.  One difference though is 
that on the first install debconf was set to not ask any questions.  I 
then ran dpkg-reconfigure debconf to change the priority, and then did 
the re-install.  Hope that helps,

A completely fresh install of Debian lenny?

The issue related to old dpkg-conffiles not being overwritten with the
current version from the aide packages. These questions are not asked
by debconf, they're asked by dpkg.
