In this situation the /etc/init.d/dhcpd script outputs an error message indicating that grep on line 226 can not find the specified file. The existing line of if test -n "$p" && grep -qE "^${DAEMON_BIN}" "/proc/$p/cmdline" ; then should be changed to if test -n "$p" -a -e /proc/$p/cmdline && grep -qE "^${DAEMON_BIN}" "/proc/$p/cmdline" ; then The error output is: netman:/usr/lib/nagios/plugins # service dhcpd restart Shutting down ISC DHCPv4 4.x Server done Starting ISC DHCPv4 4.x Server grep: /proc/29662/cmdline: No such file or directory [chroot] done Making the change removes the misleading error message. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.service dhcpd restart 2. 3. Actual Results: netman:/usr/lib/nagios/plugins # service dhcpd restart Shutting down ISC DHCPv4 4.x Server done Starting ISC DHCPv4 4.x Server grep: /proc/29662/cmdline: No such file or directory [chroot] done Expected Results: netman:/usr/lib/nagios/plugins # service dhcpd restart Shutting down ISC DHCPv4 4.x Server done Starting ISC DHCPv4 4.x Server [chroot] done -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
