Description ericm24x7 2008-08-12 21:32:34 UTC
Description of problem:
While the service is stopped (service xinetd stop). Restarting (service xinetd restart) will fail due to sub-command executing improperly. Below is the output error:

Same problem with httpd:
  service httpd stop
  service httpd restart

initscripts.x86_64 8.80-1

How reproducible:
persistent

Steps to Reproduce:
1. service xinetd stop
2. service xinetd restart

I do not see this problem at all with latest rawhide updates (2008-08-13) running on i386. initsripts-8.80-1.i386

Is this a fresh rawhide install?

What else is happening on your system prior to running 
service xinetd stop
service xinetd restart

from the command line?

Comment 2 ericm24x7 2008-08-13 19:22:32 UTC
Somehow the "yum update" I performed through repo build I pulled out a couple of days ago created an unstable state on my system. I re-installed 10-Alpha again and did NOT see the problem as I stated above. Maybe it is just some other unstable and/or transient packages affecting xinetd,httpd init scripts.

Anyway, I will closed this for now.
