Package: open-vm-tools Version: 2:9.2.2-893683-1 Severity: important Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer, I submit that bug as important although I could submit it as grave too. The stop section of the init script is not workingg. The following line is faulty: sid:~# bash -x /etc/init.d/open-vm-tools stop <snip> + start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --retry=TERM/30/KILL/5 --pidfile /var/run/vmtoolsd.pid --exec vmtoolsd start-stop-daemon: unable to stat //vmtoolsd (No such file or directory) man start-stop-daemon -x, --exec executable Check for processes that are instances of this executable. The executable argument should be an absolute pathname. Note: this might not work as intended with interpreted scripts, as the exe‐ cutable will point to the interpreter. Take into account pro‐ cesses running from inside a chroot will also be matched, so other match restrictions might be needed. Aftre replacing "--exec vmtoolsd" by "--exec /usr/bin/vmtoolsd" the script works fine.
