[opensuse] bind errors `/var/run/named/named': File exists
Hi everyone 12.1 BIND 9.8.1-P1 named running without chroot Restarting bind with the init script produces: Starting name server BIND ln: failed to create symbolic link `/var/run/named/named': File exists hh3:/var/run/named # ls -la total 8 drwxr-xr-x 2 named named 100 Dec 20 20:30 . drwxr-xr-x 23 root root 740 Dec 20 19:56 .. lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Dec 20 20:10 named -> /var/run/named -rw-r--r-- 1 named named 5 Dec 20 20:30 named.pid -rw------- 1 named named 102 Dec 20 20:30 session.key Stop bind and we get: hh3:/var/run/named # ls -la total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 named named 60 Dec 20 20:31 . drwxr-xr-x 23 root root 740 Dec 20 19:56 .. lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Dec 20 20:10 named -> /var/run/named The workaround is not to use /etc/init.d/named: killall -9 named chkconfig named off rm -r /var/run/named mkdir /var/run/named chown named:root /var/run/named named -u named 1. Why is the link, named -> /var/run/named created? 2. If the link needs to be created upon starting and deleted upon ending, then why does root create it? Need confirmation that this is not a bug.

Looks like nobody tested the a chrooted ISC named. :/

Sorry, I had been faster. See bnc#738156 and test, test, test and provide the requested information. Ensure to clean the needinfo state as soon as you have finished your testing.
Is this likely to interfere with testing Samba 4?
No. This is or better was a simple bug in the init script. See bugzilla there you have all the references. We either have to port the change to the code in use with openSUSE 12.1 or we might even use the same code for 12.1 as it is now in openSUSE Factory. The difference is minimal.
