The old init.d script is broken, this was fixed in the new package which is in updates. Unfortunately you can't update, because before it removes the old package, it tries to stop the daemon by invoking the old init script. One needs to manually correct the old init.d.
Please do the following: - edit /etc/init.d/pdns-recursor, and change line 32 from: PIDFILE=$SOCKETDIR/$NAME.pid to: PIDFILE=$PIDDIR/$NAME.pid - do an apt-get install pdns-recursor (this should install the new package from -updates/-security). -- Variable mismatch in /etc/init.d/pdns-recursor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/403957 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
