Package: gkrellmd
Version: 2.3.11-2+b1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
While testing Forky, starting monitoring gkrellmd from my desktop.
gkrellmd version 2.3.11 talking to GKrellM 2.3.11 works for a while,
thenstops. Clicking the titlebar of the GKrellM instance always
reconnects,
so the gkrellmd instance is running any time the client check for it.
Checking the journal for the gkrellmd service, find:
May 16 14:37:47 server010 systemd[1]: gkrellmd.service: Scheduled
restart job, restart counter is at 4521.

The service description file for this service,
/etc/systemd/system/gkrellmd.service, contains
[Unit]
Description=GNU Krell Monitors server
Documentation=man:gkrellmd(1)
After=network.target
[Service]
# Type=forking is used because gkrellmd detaches itself
Type=forking
ExecStart=/usr/bin/gkrellmd -U gkrellmd --detach --syslog
Restart=on-failure
User=gkrellmd
Group=nogroup
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
where I see "Restart=on-failure" and "Type=forking", so it is clear
why SystemD is restarting gkrellmd *repeatedly*, but unclear why SystemD is
pretending that gkrellmd failed to start.
