Re: updatedb fails on F7....



H Doncho,

How much time does it take it to give this message? Generally speaking you

Thanks, very much! it gives the error immediately.

should call /etc/cron.daily/mlocate.cron, which will tell updatedb what
not to index (ex: /dev, /proc, /sys, /selinux, /tmp...). Maybe one of
these pseudo filesystems is causing the problem, try mlocate.cron?

i had never heard of mlocate.cron. so i tried /etc/cron.daily/mlocate.cron and
this seems to have done the trick.

thanks,
trotter
