Package: cron Version: 3.0pl1-105 Severity: normal
# /etc/init.d/cron status Checking periodic command scheduler...done (running). # echo $? 0 # /etc/init.d/cron stop Stopping periodic command scheduler: cron. # echo $? 0 Ok, but: # /etc/init.d/cron status Checking periodic command scheduler...failed (failed to start). # echo $? 1 I'd expected to get return code 3. Looking closer: # ls /var/run/crond.pid /var/run/crond.pid # cat /var/run/crond.pid 15510 # ps aux | grep [1]5510 # Is this by intention? AFAICS it doesn't behave as LSB requires it to (see http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_3.1.0/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/iniscrptact.html for details). regards, -mika- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
