Package: gkrellmd Version: 2.3.5-3 Severity: normal When gkrellmd is started with the supplied init.d script, it creates a PID file, by default in /var/run/gkrellmd.pid
When gkrellmd is stopped with the supplied init.d script, it stops the daemon but fails to remove the PID file. Thus subsequent attempts to stop the non-running daemon causes the script to try to kill a non running process and produce an error message. # /etc/init.d/gkrellmd stop Stopping gkrellmd: gkrellmd. # /etc/init.d/gkrellmd stop Stopping gkrellmd: start-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 1880: No such process gkrellmd. It is therefore suggested that the script should check to see if the daemon really has been stopped by checking the PID in the process list, and then if it has been successfully stopped, remove the PID file so that subsequent attempts do not produce misleading messages and keep /var/run clean of non running process PID files. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gkrellmd depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii libc6 2.13-37 ii libglib2.0-0 2.33.12+really2.32.4-3 ii libsensors4 1:3.3.2-2 gkrellmd recommends no packages. gkrellmd suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/gkrellmd.conf changed: detach group proc user gkrellmd allow-host localhost allow-host 192.168.11.* port 19150 fs-interval 4 inet-interval 2 nfs-interval 32 io-timeout 16 max-clients 2 pidfile /var/run/gkrellmd.pid plugin-enable gkrelltopd update-hz 2 reconnect-timeout 8 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
