Description of problem: the latest update to httpd-2.4.26-1 (this night ) cleaned out an old httpd config file /etc/sysconfig/httpd . I believe this is a case of accidently housekeeping. The result was, that a systemd private httpd.service file, which still refered to /etc/sysconfig/httpd, could not be started by systemd due to the missing file. Ofcourse we will remove the reference to it, as this file is not needed at all. Question: I don't get, why the removal had to happen at all in this update. The control about /e/s/httpd was released with httpd-2.4.19*. Why got it deleted with 2.4.26 ? thats a lot of updates later. RPM should have had removed it while updating, not months later. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): httpd-2.4.26-1 Actual results: A file got removed the package was no longer responsible for. Expected results: Leave files, you no longer own, to themselves. Additional info: Just to give you an example of the private httpd.service file : +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [~]# cat /etc/systemd/system/httpd.service [Unit] Description=The Apache HTTP Server (prefork MPM) After=syslog.target network.target remote-fs.target nss-lookup.target [Service] Type=forking PIDFile=/var/run/httpd/httpd.pid LimitNOFILE=1000000 EnvironmentFile=/etc/sysconfig/httpd ExecStart=/usr/sbin/httpd $OPTIONS -k start ExecReload=/usr/sbin/httpd $OPTIONS -t ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID ExecStop=/usr/sbin/httpd $OPTIONS -k stop PrivateTmp=true [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ (Yes it's a modified old httpd.service file, but it worked way better than the system installed one )
Hello, you can find the commit here: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/httpd.git/commit/?h=f24&id=86a94b34f9b9d8391bb2260171d7ca54b55c0f06 This was caused by merging rawhide(master) info f26/f25/f24. sysconfig file has been removed, as it is removed in rawhide/f26/f25. In default httpd.service file, which is part of RPM, there is no EnvironmentFile directive. This means, you are using your customized .service file, which is causing problem with start of daemon. I'm sorry, this unused file was cleaned by this branch merge, but it would come later anyway.
Since we've encouraged people to use that specific file in EnvironmentFile= in custom systemd overrides we should probably keep it, %ghost-ed, so it's not removed on updates.

I rolled back the update, and then applied it again, and didn't have the same problem. The fact that it happened is indisputable, the file was absolutely rolled back to the default. I can't reproduce the problem.
