Bug 499574 – app-admin/webapp-config-1.52-r1 deletes install database entries

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description MAL 2014-01-28 11:53:46 UTC]

I have several wordpress-3.8 installs (names hidden for privacy):

# webapp-config --li -V wordpress
* Installs for wordpress-3.6.1
*   /home/xxx/www
* Installs for wordpress-3.8
*   /home/xxx/www
*   /home/xxx/www.xx
*   /home/xxx/www
*   /home/xxx/www
*   /home/xxx/www
*   /home/xxx/www

With the information stored in the /var/db/webapps/wordpress/... folders:

# ls /var/db/webapps/wordpress/3.8/
total 12
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4096 Jan 28 11:33 ./
drwxr-xr-x 25 root root 4096 Jan 28 11:03 ../
-rw-r--r--  1 root root    0 Dec 18 10:34 .keep_www-apps_wordpress-3.8
-rw-------  1 root root  275 Jan 28 11:34 installs

Updating one of the 3.8 installs to 3.8.1 as usual with:

webapp-config -U -h xxx wordpress 3.8.1

Works as expected, but the list of 3.8 installs gets hosed:

# webapp-config --li -V wordpress
* Installs for wordpress-3.6.1
*   /home/xxx/www
* Installs for wordpress-3.8.1
*   /home/xxx/www

# ls /var/db/webapps/wordpress/3.8/
total 12
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4096 Jan 28 11:33 ./
drwxr-xr-x 25 root root 4096 Jan 28 11:03 ../
-rw-r--r--  1 root root    0 Dec 18 10:34 .keep_www-apps_wordpress-3.8

The "installs" file for 3.8 has been deleted.  Luckily I keep backups, so I replaced it, manually removed the entry that had been updated and tried again.  The same happens.

webapp-config was updated from 1.50.16-r4 to 1.52-r1 on 2013-12-06 and it's possible I haven't needed to use it since then, so it may be a change in 1.52

This is not the same as bug 493520.  This is not files from the Wordpress installation getting removed, but the webapp-config database file itself.

1.53 fixes this - thank you.
