Hi,
I have a setup with 2 redundant (primary / secondary) DHCPd servers
where both of them crash occasionally. This is a separate bug, but this
solution was useful in restarting the daemons after crashing and leaving
the pid files behind.
To automatically restart the daemons after this
Hi,
I encountered the same issue after a crash of the dhcpd process. The
daemon could not be restarted without deleting the old PID file first.
I modified the /etc/init.d/isc-dhcp-server script on my servers from :
|if [ -e "$PIDFILE" ]; then log_failure_msg "dhcpd service already
running
Package: isc-dhcp-server
Version: 4.3.5-3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
The isc-dhcp-server service refuses to start ("systemctl start
isc-dhcp-server")
if the pidfile (/run/dhcpd.pid) is present, even if dhcpd is
not running. Reproducing this is easy given working dhcpd configuration:
