Description Kamil Páral 2010-08-05 13:33:23 UTC
Description of problem:
Initscripts rpcgssd and rpcsvcgssd do not conform to the LSB requirements. When I run:
$ service rpcgssd <anything>
I get no output and return code 6.

I believe it's caused by these lines:

# See if we are configured to start
[ "${SECURE_NFS}" != "yes" ] && exit 6

But that's not the point. Initscript should *always* return usage line on "service <service> usage" and *always* return their status on "service <service> status". These actions should never fail.

They can fail on other actions, but they should fail with reasonable error message at least.

From what I've seen this problem applies to rpcgssd and rpcsvcgssd initscripts.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nfs-utils-1.2.2-2.fc13.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have ${SECURE_NFS} to false
2. service rpcgssd usage (status, whatever)

Actual results:
No output

Expected results:
LSB compliant output and return code

I haven't looked, but it's likely that Fedora just needs the same patch as this one proposed for RHEL6:
