Description Need Real Name 2003-04-22 04:36:30 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)

Description of problem:
The startup script and/or named do not support the Native POSIX Thread Library 
(NPTL)

According to the recommendation of "Red Hat Linux 9 Release Notes"
# export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5
removes the error.

Secondary issues with the startup script messages are:
"Starting named [OK]" not followed by \n so it is overwritten by next line.
"Stopping named: " is not followed by [OK] or [FAILED]


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bind-9.2.1-16

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHL 9 with minimum number of components
2. Install bind-9.2.1-16
3. Install caching-nameserver-7.2-7
4. /etc/rc.d/init.d/named start
5. /etc/rc.d/init.d/named stop
6. tail /var/log/messages

Actual Results:  Apr 21 22:46:15 localhost named[2057]: app.c:561: unexpected 
error:
Apr 21 22:46:15 localhost named[2057]: isc_app_shutdown() pthread_kill: No such 
process

named service keeps running (verify using ps -ax)

Expected Results:  named service should stop without errors and the following 
console message should appear:
Stopping named: [OK]

This is a known kernel problem and is fixed in the kernel errata.
