Can you attach your /etc/sysctl.conf? Created attachment 106912 [details]
My sysctl.conf
As requested: My /etc/sysctl.conf. Should be as distributed, except for
kernel.sysrq = 1
and
dev.rtc.max-user-freq = 1024
The kernel is returning -EINVAL. I recently upgraded from RH9, with IPv6 enabled, and I am seeing the same problem. An update has been released for Fedora Core 3 (kernel-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3) which may contain a fix for your problem. Please update to this new kernel, and report whether or not it fixes your problem. If you have updated to Fedora Core 4 since this bug was opened, and the problem still occurs with the latest updates for that release, please change the version field of this bug to 'fc4'. Thank you. With kernel 2.6.12-1.1372_FC3, I don't get error messages any more. Thanks. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: When booting/shutting down/changing runlevel, I get this error message: error: unknown error 22 reading key 'net.ipv6.route.flush' error: unknown error 22 reading key 'net.ipv4.route.flush' error: unknown error 22 reading key 'fs.binfmt_misc.register' The same error messages appear if I do sysctl -a >/dev/null I don't know if the error messages really indicate something bad. But the messages are not "pretty" during boot/shutdown. I've narrowed the problem down to the /etc/init.d/network script and the related /etc/sysconfig/networking file. If I put the following line into /etc/sysconfig/networking, the problem exists: NETWORKING_IPV6=yes If the above value is set to "no", then the problem goes away (as well as my IPv6 connectivity...). I've tried going through the contents of the initscript package, trying to find instances of "sysctl -a", changing them to "sysctl -e -a", for a start. But that didn't help, or I missed something. Apart from that, I'm wondering if the sysctl error messages is something that I should worry about. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): initscripts-7.93.5-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set NETWORKING_IPV6 to "yes" in /etc/sysconfig/network 2. "Run /etc/init.d/network restart" Actual Results: Shutting down interface eth1: [ OK ] Shutting down interface sit2: [ OK ] Shutting down loopback interface: [ OK ] error: unknown error 22 reading key 'net.ipv6.route.flush' error: unknown error 22 reading key 'net.ipv4.route.flush' error: unknown error 22 reading key 'fs.binfmt_misc.register' error: unknown error 22 reading key 'net.ipv6.route.flush' error: unknown error 22 reading key 'net.ipv4.route.flush' error: unknown error 22 reading key 'fs.binfmt_misc.register' Setting network parameters: [ OK ] Bringing up loopback interface: [ OK ] Expected Results: Shutting down interface eth1: [ OK ] Shutting down interface sit2: [ OK ] Shutting down loopback interface: [ OK ] Setting network parameters: [ OK ] Bringing up loopback interface: [ OK ] Additional info:
