A quick fix could be to add
Code:
checkpath -d --owner munin:munin --mode 0755 /run/munin
to /etc/init.d/munin-node - I did this myself today when I ran into the same problem after moving/migrating to new hardware.

Hi.

I'd the same issue.

I think to code the manual fix into munin-node script is not a good idea, because of disabling munin-node on the server host and keeping munin server running is disabling the fix.

In my oppinion there should be a fix in the package for munin server part, so the solution is installed for everyone that uses the munin-pakage for server usage.

My current solution is a script in /etc/local.d/

/etc/local.d/10_munin.run_dir_creation_and_set_permission.sh.start
Code:

#!/bin/bash

sDirName=/run/munin

echo "Create munin run directory '$sDirName' with proper permissions."
if [ ! -d "$sDirName" ]; then
        mkdir -v "$sDirName
fi
chown -c munin "$sDirName"

Thanks! That solved my probles also.

The code missing a closing quote sign. I fixed it there:

Code:

#!/bin/bash

sDirName=/run/munin

echo "Create munin run directory '$sDirName' with proper permissions."
if [ ! -d "$sDirName" ]; then
        mkdir -v "$sDirName"
fi
chown -c munin "$sDirName"
