My apologies if I offended you.
seriously - about what magic are you talking?
do you even know what a pidfile is?
it's a simple textfile where the process writes it's PID
and PIDFile forces systemd to read that file and use the content as
"Main PID"
Yes, I am aware of what a pidfile is.
So, above would underline my analysis that systemd was not able to read
the pidfile. Possible causes:
1. Configuration issue: named did not write the pidfile to the file
indicated in the unit file by PIDFile
2. SELinux issue: named was not able to write the pidfile, because
SELinux denied access.
the whole point of my responses was the upstream should reconsider to
use the option becasue it's proven to be useless no matter what some
outdated manpage says
I cannot comment on the man page being up to date. But I already agreed
with your point of view, that PIDFile in case of named has become obsolete.
So, I think we are on the same page here.
