Bug#486109: spong-client: Wrong sort option in spong.conf --> no load graphs
Package: spong-client
Version: 2.7.7-21
Severity: normal
Hi,
after a fresh install of spong-client I missed the Load, Users and Jobs
graphs and gotfalse alarms red about not running cron- and syslog-daemons.
It turned out to be a wrong option of "sort" in /etc/spong/spong.conf:
$PS = "/bin/ps ax -O'%C ' | /usr/bin/sort +1 -r";
where "+1" is deprecated and has to be replaced by "-k1".
$PS = "/bin/ps ax -O'%C ' | /usr/bin/sort -k1 -r";
This is the case with
# sort --version
sort (GNU coreutils) 6.10
kind regards
