Comment 1 Daniel Walsh 2003-02-03 16:13:51 UTC
Are you running on a Non-English machine.  Errors similar to this have been 
showing up on them.  The latest release of redhat-config-services in RawHide fixes 
those problems.

Comment 2 Muiz Motani 2003-02-03 20:47:52 UTC
I am actually running an english machine. 

However, upgrading to Rawhide (redhat-config-services-0.8.4-1.noarch.rpm) seems
to allow me to use the utility. It does still, however give me the following error:

/etc/init.d/error reading from directory /etc/init.d [Errno 2] No such file or
directory: '/etc/init.d/error reading reading from directory /etc/init.d'

The program does not exit, however, and I seem to be able to use the controls.

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2003-02-03 21:10:48 UTC
Could you attach the output of 

chkconfig --list

Comment 5 Daniel Walsh 2003-03-04 16:31:13 UTC
THere is a unconnected link in one of your /etc/rc.d/rc directories.  If you
delete this the problem will go away.
