Did you run 'emerge --config =net-misc/dhcp-3.0.3-r2' as instructed to by the ebuild?
Yes same thing with emerge --config. I had a chroot already set up before upgrading and nothing went wrong. The problem has appeared after upgrading from r1 to r2 release, which changed the init.d script.
Bug reopened, I think the problem resides in the init.d script.
Created attachment 80259 [details, diff] Attempt to fix issue Could the reporter please test this patch. If it doesn't work, then please attach your full dhcpd.conf
Created attachment 80261 [details, diff] Another patch This one should fix regardless
After the patch, the server start but it has 2 problems. 1) It doesn't create the right "/chroot/dhcp/var/lib/dhcp/dhcp.leases" files, instead it creates "/var/lib/dhcp/dhcp.leases;" (yes with the semicolon, I think this error comes from a bad read of the dhcpd.conf). 2) It can't stop mys server anymore with the error: "No /usr/sbin/dhcpd found running; none killed.". I tried also to create a usr/sbin dir under the chroot dir with a copy of the dhcpd binary, I'm getting always the same error. My general section of dhcpd.conf: ## General options lease-file-name "/var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases"; pid-file-name "/var/run/dhcp/dhcpd.pid"; default-lease-time 600; max-lease-time 7200; authoritative; ddns-update-style none; ignore client-updates; log-facility local7; I have also one subnet declaration but I think this should be enough to help.
Created attachment 80397 [details] New init file OK, here's the my full init file (easier than patching from your end). It should fix both your problems, but you may need to zap the script and kill the dhcpd process manually until the script successfully starts.
Problems solved, bug fixed. Status changed to WORKSFORME. Thank you.
Re-opening until the script hits portage
Fixed in dhcp-3.0.3-r3
