Description Michal Marciniszyn 2007-04-26 08:33:40 UTC
Description of problem:
On several occasions, the script may end up with error code 0 even when the
service is not started. As an example line:
[ ${NETWORKING} = "no" ] && exit 0
and some others. Also the return codes do not obbey our guidlines. Also note,
that the status command of the service should always return correct value, even
if the service itself cannot be started.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
all

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. service network stop
2. service conman start/status
3. echo $?
  
Actual results:
0

Expected results:
non-zero error code due to our guidlines/status of the service

Additional info:
When fixing this bug, please obbey our init script guidelines and be sure that
status command is run correctly.
Our guidelines are on following two pages:
http://intranet.corp.redhat.com/ic/intranet/InitscriptsSpec.html
http://intranet.corp.redhat.com/ic/intranet/InitscriptGuidelines.html

For an example of the script that returns the error codes correctly and always
runs status see:

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux release.  Since this
bugzilla is in a component that is not approved for the current
release, it has been closed with resolution deferred.  You may
reopen this bugzilla for consideration in the next release.

Comment 4 Jarod Wilson 2007-06-07 22:03:25 UTC
Seriously? This is a 2-line patch that changes exit codes in the initscript and
the work is already all done. This automated stuff is rather obnoxious.
