Missing trailing CR?
A quick look at the source code shows it does not pay attention to line termination at all. However looking at the utils/start-stop-daemon.c:check(pid_t pid) function, it seems that just --pidfile should be enough, unless this is debian on something else than Linux, HP-UX, HURD, FreeBSD or NetBSD? (As in that case the function would simply be a no-op). Please try with --test, it might print more useful debugging info. -- Marcin Owsiany <mar...@owsiany.pl> http://marcin.owsiany.pl/ GnuPG: 1024D/60F41216 FE67 DA2D 0ACA FC5E 3F75 D6F6 3A0D 8AA0 60F4 1216 "Every program in development at MIT expands until it can read mail." -- Unknown --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
