[Bug 1130611] Re: Upstart never closes /var/log/upstart/mysql.log

[Dominic Raferd]

oops, looks like I spoke too soon. The report from dmesg mentioned in my
previous comment has gone away on reboot. I believe the cause may have
been a fault in my /etc/rc.local file, which may not have been
completing. This is fixed now.

Title:
  Upstart never closes /var/log/upstart/mysql.log

Status in upstart package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I ran "init u" after noticing a lingering FD to a log file that lsof
  showed as "(deleted)". However because the file handle is never
  closed, and the log files get logrotate'd it keeps happening, like so:

  init      1 root   11w   REG              252,0     3532  394558
  /var/log/upstart/mysql.log.1 (deleted)

  It's possible this might be fixed by a version update, as I noticed
  there were closed bugs relating to "leaked" file descriptors?
