Recently I have installed BLFS 6.1 and my fetchmail boot
script copied from my BLFS 5.1 installation does not work anymore. Bootlog returns the following message: “\n\n/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S96fetchmail
failed and exited with a return value of 5. Mar 8 08:54:14 cosmos bootlog:
FAILURE:\n\nYou should not be reading this error message.\n\n It means
that an unforseen error took place in /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S96fetchmail, which
exited with a return value of An exit value of 5 means: There was a syntax error in
the arguments to fetchmail. However, when I execute “/etc/rc.d/init.d/fetchmail
start” it starts without any problem. Also “/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S96fetchmail
start” works without problems. There is something else I noticed. When fetchmail is
not running and I do “/etc/rc.d/init.d/fetchmail status” it says
that fetchmail is running, but when I do “/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S96fetchmail
status” it correctly returns that fetchmail is not running. And /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S96fetchmail
is just a symbolic link to “/etc/rc.d/init.d/fetchmail” Someone any idea what is happing here. The “/etc/rc.d/init.d/fetchmail” contents
is: #!/bin/sh # Begin $rc_base/init.d/fetchmail . /etc/sysconfig/rc . $rc_functions case "$1" in start)
echo "Starting fetchmail daemon..."
/usr/bin/fetchmail -d 600
evaluate_retval
;; stop)
echo "Stopping fetchmail daemon..."
/usr/bin/fetchmail -q
evaluate_retval
;; restart)
$0 stop
sleep 1
$0 start
;; status)
statusproc /usr/bin/fetchmail
;; *)
echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart|status}"
exit 1
;; esac # End $rc_base/init.d/fetchmail |
