Description Karel Volný 2010-07-16 12:01:44 UTC
Description of problem:
The function rlServiceStart tries to stop the service before starting it, but if stopping fails, the start is skipped then.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
beakerlib-1.3-2.el4.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. try the test /CoreOS/ypserv/singlehost on RHEL4
  
Actual results:
there's a lot of failures indicating that ypserv service is not running

Expected results:
the test passes

Additional info:
in /usr/share/beakerlib/infrastructure.sh there is:

            if ! service $service stop; then
                rlLogError "rlServiceStart: Stopping service $service failed."
                ((failed++))
                continue
            fi

- the "continue" command causes the next commands, the service startup to be skipped

I see no reason for such behaviour, even if the function thinks that the service is running already (because stopping has failed) then starting a running service should do nothing, no harm trying that

Petr, service stuff is your code, would you look on this? (throw it back on me if not)

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2013-04-03 20:13:53 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)
