sadc not enabled in /etc/default/sysstat

[rusty]

I installed sysstat as part of my upgrade to 6.0.5 on Ubuntu 8.04 lts.

On bootup I get the following error: "sadc not enabled in /etc/default/sysstat"

Googled it and on a debian machine it says I should edit: /etc/default/sysstat and change the line: ENABLED="false" to ENABLED="true".

A search of the error on the Zimbra forums turns up nothing. Wanted to double check, should I enable it?

Many thanks.

Additional info:

I noticed when I checked zimbra status that stats was not running, so I enabled sysstats and started it. Restarted zcs and stats still not running.

hello, i have this problem with my zimbra server, please if you know how to fix help me

[rusty]

still not resolved for me. going to upgrade to 6.0.6 from 6.0.5 to see if that helps.

john, what version of Zimbra are you on?

[johnguzman]

the version of zimbra is 6.0.5 network intalled in Suse

[johnguzman]

I think install zimbra 6.0.5 network again without upgrade

I have the same warning message on my server (FOSS on UBUNTU 8.0.4)
Also stats wil stop running after a few days. I have to go into /opt/zimbra/zmstat and change folder owner from root to zimbra. It is usually just the last/current day's folder that have wrong owner. (Tip:Use WinSCP, it is so much quicker/easier to see and fix wrong folders)
Restart service and stats run again for a few days.
It was mentioned (I think) that this bug was fixed, but it is still showing itself now and again.
Strange though that it does not do it every day when a new folder is created.

Hey Ekkas, thanks for your post. For the first time since I've upgraded my stats are shown as running. I'm anxious to see if they remain running. From the command line I did:

chown -R zimbra:zimbra /opt/zimbra/zmstat

[rusty]

ekkas, just wanted to follow up. My settings did not revert back, user:group still Zimbra. Try: chown -R zimbra:zimbra /opt/zimbra/zmstat

Also, once I did this my logs were flooded (I mean FLOODED) with entries that shouldn't be logged. It's the rsyslog bug. You might want to check logs, especially the message.log (Can't remember if it was in /var/log or /opt/zimbra/log)
