Description Michal Marciniszyn 2007-06-11 14:11:17 UTC
Description of problem:
The rpcgssd, rpcidmapd and rpcsvcgssd init scripts returns incorrect error
codes. Some constructions in these scripts also prevent the correct status
command call, for example:
if [ ! -f /etc/sysconfig/network ]; then
    exit 0
fi
[ "${NETWORKING}" = "no" ] && exit 0
[ ! -x /usr/sbin/rpc.gssd ] && exit 0
[ "${SECURE_NFS}" != "yes" ] && exit 0

Comment 9 Steve Dickson 2007-09-04 10:45:18 UTC
I guess I don't understand why moving all the global 
sanity checking into the start method is a good thing.

What breaks by having these checks at the beginning 
of the script?

Comment 10 Michal Marciniszyn 2007-09-04 12:12:56 UTC
The status command won't be able to run and also the service won't be able to
stop when some of the checks fail. 

Comment 11 Steve Dickson 2007-09-05 14:17:33 UTC
Should the return value of a service that's not configured
be the "program is not configured" value (i.e. 6)? 
Regardless of that command argument was given?

Also before a server is disabled shouldn't the
server be stopped?

Now I'm more than willing to make the appropriate
changes (believe me I don't want to be a pain) but 
I just when through this very exercise with the 
Fedora crowd so I'm concern about make changes
here that will not be acceptable there... 

Comment 12 Michal Marciniszyn 2007-09-12 15:41:34 UTC
There is nice page from Harald Hoyer who is working on new init for fedora. The
recommendations for fedora and RHEL are IMHO consistent, so if you fix the bug
following this page:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/SysVInitScript
everything should be OK. (of course RHEL 5 init does not need LSB header and
some othre stuff).

Comment 13 Suzanne Logcher 2007-09-17 19:33:07 UTC
This request was previously evaluated by Red Hat Product Management
for inclusion in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release, but
Red Hat was unable to resolve it in time.  This request will be
reviewed for a future Red Hat Enterprise Linux release.
