Description Gerald Cox 2016-08-11 23:18:11 UTC
Description of problem:
Upon reboot searchd may fail with:
FATAL: failed to create pid file '/var/run/sphinx/searchd.pid': No such file or directory


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sphinx-2.2.11-1.fc26.x86_64


How reproducible:
Upon system reboot

Additional info:

Problem was caused by incorrect tmpfiles.d configuration "sphinx.conf".  
Temporary workaround until sphinx-2.2.11-2 is available will be to either
backout to previous version "dnf downgrade sphinx" or simply edit:

/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/sphinx.conf

and replace contents of file with the following line:
d /run/sphinx 755 sphinx root -
