I can confirm this issue exists in KDE 4.7.3 as distributed in kubuntu 11.10. Twice already I have had to manually delete this file after it filled the disk. This bug should in fact be marked a critical as it results in data loss and system crash (as the only way to regain system function is to invoke a hard crash, reboot to a shell, delete the offending file). As the file exists in the home partition, when the disk fills, open files, including session details normally saved by KDE, firefox etc. all fail to save and are lost. This is in fact two bugs: 1. The fact that this file gets so much log data indicates some underlying problem 2. It should *never* be possible for a log file to fill a disk and render a system unusable I'm having the same problems on KDE 4.7.3. Right now, directly after login nepomuk starts to write the log message and I am unable to perform any task, anything at all. I also get terminal messages that akonadi fills the memory (out of memory: Kill process 1234 (akonadi_agent_l) score 68 or sacrifice child...). The system is too slow to even execute terminal commands. Also, soprano fills my .xsession-errors with "the name org.kde.nepomuk.services.nepomukstorage was not provided by any .service files". I "fixed" this problem on my system by making soprano-virtuoso.log a symlink to /dev/null. Thank you, I will consider this. Apart from that, is your nepomuk working? I don't use any of the features of nepomuk so I don't know if it works or not. In fact, I'm trying changing my USE flags right now to see if I can uninstall it from all my computers without adversely affecting the dependencies of other programs. This seems to be a duplicate of Bug 264465, which is one year old. I have also reported a bug about this today and already marked it as duplicate. This thing caused DATA LOSS for me by filling my encrypted /home/user and killing my kde session, obviously causing an unclean unmount of encryptfs and trashing the documents I was working on. So I suppose to mark this as a major bug and try to resolve it asap, since it exsts for at least a year now. Logs should be regularly flushed or at least limited in size. I forgot: I am on Kubuntu 11.10 all updated to 4.7.4 and confirm the same problem. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 264465 *** |
