When i trying to stop dnsmasq i receive error: home-gentoo ~ # /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart * Stopping dnsmasq ... * start-stop-daemon: 1 process refused to stop [ !! ] * ERROR: dnsmasq failed to stop When i trying to kill process, it is killed normally with non-SIGTERM signal and not killed with SIGTERM. dnsmasq-2.52 do it right.
I have the same think when I am shuting down system. DNSMasq failed to start *if* logger (metalog in my cause) is down first. Do you have syslog/metalog/whatever started? I wonder if I can force script to stop dnsmasq *before* metalog is stopped?
Ah, sorry, It failing on stop, no start.
I got same here : * Stopping dnsmasq ... * start-stop-daemon: 1 process refused to stop [ !! ] * ERROR: dnsmasq failed to stop i can kill -9 him but it's not a good way. i'm using dnsmasq 2.55 baselayout 2.0.1-r1 openrc 0.6.3 portage 2.1.9.24
(In reply to comment #3) You can kill it with SIGINT, for example

Fixed by adding a use dep on logger in the init script as suggested by Piotr Karbowski on bug #345601.
