[Spacewalk-list] SW 1.9 abrt crash upload fails

Fri Mar 8 16:07:06 UTC 2013

Thanks a lot, it works now... but I noticed 2 points:
1) I've launched another test to validate the path. Here is the logs I had:
Mar  8 15:46:44 abrtd: Directory 'ccpp-2013-03-08-15:46:44-20301' creation

Mar  8 15:46:56 abrtd: Corrupted or bad directory
'/var/spool/abrt/ccpp-2013-03-08-15:46:44-20301', deleting

The folder "/var/spool/abrt/ccpp-2013-03-07-15:29:42-3952" is the one that
were created when spacewalk-abrt crashed.
When I've generated a new crash today with your patch, spacewalk-abrt
couldn't upload the data and deleted this folder.

I've deleted folder "/var/spool/abrt/ccpp-2013-03-07-15:29:42-3952" and
regenerated a crash... everything was working

2) sosreport.tar.xz has not been uploaded to my spacewalk server. The file
size limit is set to 2048 and the file is 1.3MB.

Thanks,

Pierre
