Bug 13434 – named init.d script complains about svc_start/stop

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alessandro Pisani 2003-01-07 12:22:39 UTC]

* Please use 'svc_stop; svc_start' and not 'start; stop' to
 * restart the service in its custom 'restart()' function.
 * Run named without arguments for more info.

 * Stopping named...                                                      [ ok ]
 * Starting named...                                                      [ ok ]

can be fixed adding:

restart() {
    svc_stop
    svc_start
}

to /etc/init.d/named

went to fix, but you are using a very old init script that has been updated :)
I'll go ahead and change the old script though ...thanks

Reopening bug:  Brad: i'm not using an old init script: it is the one which gets installed by bind-9.2.2_rc2-r1.ebuild : named.rc6. You changed named.rc5, so the problem ramains since emerge will install named.rc6 which gives the error I previously reported.

ok, I think I get what u mean...I added a restart() function to the rc6 init script
