[Bug 1778959] Re: error floating point exception

[Andreas Hasenack]

I also couldn't reproduce this bug.

In a bionic VM, I installed iptraf-ng 1:1.1.4-6:
root at ubuntu:/var/log/iptraf# apt-cache policy iptraf-ng
iptraf-ng:
  Installed: 1:1.1.4-6
  Candidate: 1:1.1.4-6
  Version table:
 *** 1:1.1.4-6 500
        500 http://br.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
root at ubuntu:/var/log/iptraf# 


I created /var/log/iptraf, entered the UI, enabled logging in the config. When starting the monitor, it prompted me for the log file, where I had to correct the log directory (from iptraf-ng to iptraf), but after that, it ran just fine and produced the logfile I indicated:

# ll /var/log/iptraf/
total 12
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root   4096 Jul  9 20:40 ./
drwxrwxr-x 9 root syslog 4096 Jul  9 20:39 ../
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root    360 Jul  9 20:40 andreas.log


I agree that the log directory not being created is a bug. It's even mentioned in the shipped logrotate file:
root at ubuntu:/var/log/iptraf# cat /etc/logrotate.d/iptraf-ng 
# Logrotate file for iptraf
/var/log/iptraf/*.log {
	compress
	delaycompress
	missingok
	notifempty
	rotate 4
	create 0600 root root
}

Did you check if your crash produced a crash file in /var/crash? If yes,
please upload it to this bug, so we can take a look at the core dump
file. It may be related to the type of traffic you are seeing.
