Description Tomas Heinrich 2011-04-21 14:53:37 UTC
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rsyslog-4.6.2-3.el6

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #650509 +++

Description of problem:
rsyslog's initscript creates a lock file named rsyslogd. The initscript's name is rsyslog, and because these two don't match, rc will not run the stop action when shutting down the system.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rsyslog-3.22.1-3.el5
rsyslog-4.4.2-6.fc13.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot with rsyslog enabled
2. Check /var/lock/subsys

Comment 3 Karel Srot 2011-08-16 15:43:15 UTC
Since lockfile is changed also /etc/init.d/rsyslog should be updated with:

rhstatus() {
        status -p "${PIDFILE}" -l $prog $prog
}
