Description Josh 2013-04-03 12:27:17 UTC
Description of problem:
the PIDFile in the service definition points to /run/bip/bip.pid but this directory doesn't exist (and can't by default because it is a tmpfs).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.8.8-7.fc18.armv5tel

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install bip
2. systemctl start bip.service
3.
  
Actual results:
bip fails to start

Expected results:
bip starts

Additional info:
changing the PIDFile=/run/bip/bip.pid to PIDFile=/var/run/bip/bip.pid in bip.service fixes it

Do you have a /etc/tmpfiles.d/bip.conf installed? This is supposed to setup the directory. Also, /var/run/ should be a symlink to /run/
