I have seen this error as well, although I've always been able to
restart hflow, at the command line with:

service hflow restart

I don't have a fix for you, but wanted to say that it's not a unique
problem you are experiencing!

Subject: [Honeywall] Hflow: startup error

Hi list,

I am consistently getting the following Hflow start up error:

Starting Hflow: premature failure. Initialization aborted? Parent
sighandler, something received. exiting!


Honeywall is on aVMware 1.6 server running on Ubuntu 8.04. eth0 is
bridged. eth1 host only. eth2 custom.
Yum updated to latest. Snort signatures have also been updated, other
than that there have been no changes to the Honeywall install.

Honeywall has been working fine for a few weeks. This error has occurred
before, but after several attempts to restart the Honeywall processes
via the System Admin interface of Walleye I managed to get hflow
running. No such luck anymore after numerous reboots and attempts to
restart Honeywall from Walleye hflow consistently  fails to start.

I have tried with and without the honeypot running and without any
physical network connections.

Any suggestions as to how to resolve this without a rebuild?

Cheers
Dave
