Somehow broke logger, thereby breaking everything

Hi All,

I got an NVX a couple of weeks ago, promised myself I would behave, but I just could not resist... I had to tinker with it! :D

I got hit by the same logger problem, but I choose a "less drastic" way of getting around it.
Sharing with the world so you have another option, and may choose not to touch the installed software (busybox).

I replaced the /usr/bin/logger symlink to busybox (cd /usr/bin/; rm -i logger; vi logger; #A, copy & paste, ESC : x ; chmod +x logger) by the following script:

#!/bin/bash
while getopts ":st:p:" Option
do
  case ${Option} in
        s | t | p ) cmdline="${cmdline} -${Option} ${OPTARG}" ;;
  esac
done
shift $((${OPTIND} - 1))

busybox logger "${cmdline}" "${*}"

This way the -i parameter is ignored, for mySQL and other scripts that try to call busybox/logger with it.

Regards,

b
