Linux; dnf - automatic killed our Moodle?

[barnabythebear]

Hiya,

 

We have our Moodle (web box and DB box) on Oracle Linux box (VM) and have dnf - automatic enabled to install updates in the background. It looks like an update this week killed our Date Base box by deleting a folder from ssh and a config folder from our MariaDB install. We have managed to recover them for now and disabled dnf - automatic. What we are having trouble with is pinpointing what actually happened. We don't have much Linux knowledge but can't find anything in the logs. Anyone had experience of this?

 

Many thanks in advance,

 

Nige.

Directives For the %files list suggests that config files shouldn't be altered on an upgrade. What are the locations of the files that were deleted?

Hi,

 

Thanks for the response. The missing folder was etc/my.cnf.d and half a dozen files from etc/ssh/

 

Thank you,

 

Nige.
