I was asked to file a bug for the following issue.
Login WebUI fails because /var/log is 100% full. This is not a password authentication issue because I can switch to user "admin" in console.
When I enter 'kinit list' as root I get this response: kinit: general error (see e-text) for Initial credentials will be fetched.
The same error is shown for 'kinit admin'.
I checked the log files for errors but didn't detect anything. Then I verified if any service was failing, but everything was running.
After this I tried to restart ipa.service and this failed with an error message that pointed to /var/log. I must admit that I cannot recall the error message in detail, but it was saying something like "cannot write...".
Further investigation showed that file /var/log/dirsrv/slapd-BISZUMBITTERENEN-DE/errors was very large. After ensuring that related service is not running I compressed this file and restarted the service. After this I could start ipa.service and everything is working again.
Login not possible
Meaningful error message pointing to the root cause.
Isn't monitoring of host resources proper notifying about it a job for a different tool? E.g. Zabbix?
