Created attachment 1099170 [details] Run bird in foreground Description of problem: The systemd unit file doesn't run bird in a good way to integrate with the systemd journal. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): bird-1.4.5-1.el7.x86_64 How reproducible: Always able to reproduce. Steps to Reproduce: 1. install bird package 2. run "systemctl start bird.service" Actual results: The command used to exec the service is "/usr/sbin/bird". This results in bird daemonizing itself. Also, when I have "log stderr all", I see no logs from bird after start. Expected results: The command used should be "/usr/sbin/bird -f" so that bird runs in the foreground and integrates better with the systemd journal. Additional info: I added an attachment with a patch for the unit file at /usr/lib/systemd/system/bird.service.
I haven't seen any feedback on this request. I was wondering, does this seem like a reasonable change to make?
Hi Warren, Thank you for your request and sorry for reaaaaly long delay in my reply. Yes, it seems perfectly reasonable, I'll take a look at it. Thanks!
Sweet, thanks for the reply.
