Package: sympa Version: 5.3.4-6.1 Severity: normal "/etc/init.d/sympa reload" always restarts the daemons, even if they are not running. This is a problem in a typical failover configuration using heartbeat, in which one machine (a warm standby) always has sympa disabled. Logrotate calls the bootscript with "reload" and restarts the service.
This problem exists in the most recent version in unstable (5.4.7-1) too. "Reload" should check to see if the pidfile exists before restarting. I suggest replacing this: restart|force-reload|reload) $0 stop sleep 3 $0 start ;; with something like this: restart|force-reload) $0 stop sleep 3 $0 start ;; reload) if test -s $PIDFILE; then $0 stop sleep 3 $0 start fi ;; -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.4 APT prefers stable APT policy: (750, 'stable'), (70, 'oldstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages sympa depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.24 Debian configuration management sy pn libarchive-zip-perl <none> (no description available) ii libc6 2.7-18lenny2 GNU C Library: Shared libraries pn libcgi-fast-perl <none> (no description available) pn libcrypt-ciphersaber-pe <none> (no description available) ii libdbd-mysql-perl 4.007-1+lenny1 A Perl5 database interface to the ii libdbd-pg-perl 2.8.7-1+lenny1 Perl DBI driver for the PostgreSQL ii libdbi-perl 1.605-1 Perl5 database interface by Tim Bu ii libfcgi-perl 0.67-2.1+b1 FastCGI Perl module pn libintl-perl <none> (no description available) ii libio-stringy-perl 2.110-4 Perl modules for IO from scalars a ii libmailtools-perl 2.03-1 Manipulate email in perl programs ii libmd5-perl 2.03-1 backwards-compatible wrapper for D ii libmime-perl 5.427-1 transitional dummy package ii libmime-tools-perl [lib 5.427-1 Perl5 modules for MIME-compliant m pn libmsgcat-perl <none> (no description available) ii libnet-ldap-perl 1:0.36-1 A Client interface to LDAP servers ii libtemplate-perl 2.19-1.1lenny1.1 template processing system written ii libxml-libxml-perl 1.66-1+b1 Perl module for using the GNOME li ii mhonarc 2.6.16-1 Mail to HTML converter ii perl [libmime-base64-pe 5.10.0-19lenny2 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii perl-suid 5.10.0-19lenny2 Runs setuid Perl scripts ii postfix [mail-transport 2.5.5-1.1 High-performance mail transport ag ii sysklogd [system-log-da 1.5-5 System Logging Daemon Versions of packages sympa recommends: ii doc-base 0.8.20 utilities to manage online documen ii logrotate 3.7.1-5 Log rotation utility Versions of packages sympa suggests: pn apache | apache-ssl | h <none> (no description available) pn libapache-mod-fastcgi <none> (no description available) pn mysql-server | postgres <none> (no description available) ii openssl 0.9.8g-15+lenny6 Secure Socket Layer (SSL) binary a -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
