Bug 57996 – /etc/init.d/venus calls no-longer existing function "checkconfig"

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Mike Nerone 2004-07-22 15:40:15 UTC]

net-fs/coda/files/venus used to have a "checkconfig" function. It appears to have been taken out, but the call to it remains, so the script fails 100%.

Griffon26 told me he has the fixes.

I found a problem in the patch that I submitted. 
Apparently I diff'd against a wrong version.

As a workaround, remove the line with checkconfig.
(That's what the diff was supposed to have done anyway.)

I'll fix the problem as soon as I am able to.

Heh...already did that...just wanted to let you know. :)

[Comment 4 Maurice van der Pot (RETIRED) 2004-07-26 11:23:55 UTC]

Thanks for the report. A fix should now be in cvs. 
Could you check if it works so I can close this bug?

[Comment 5 Mike Nerone 2004-07-28 11:50:46 UTC]

I'm sorry...I can no longer test this as I have switched to linux26-headers and coda-client has a dependency on >=sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4 (perhaps this should be a changed to virtual/os-headers?).

I unpacked it and it looks right to me, but that doesn't mean anything. :| Can someone else test it, please?

[Comment 6 Daniel Black (RETIRED) 2004-07-28 15:22:30 UTC]

if it unpacks and compiles theres a good chance its ok. Use emerge -O coda to emerge without dependancies. If that works please let griffon26 know here.

[Comment 7 Daniel Black (RETIRED) 2004-07-28 15:24:31 UTC]

Comments to bug 58702 please.

[Comment 8 Mike Nerone 2004-07-29 02:02:34 UTC]

Ok, I can confirm that "checkconfig" works now. But "/etc/init.d/venus stop" produces an error (" [??] "). Venus does exit, but this error is given nonetheless (so you have to zap it to restart it).

[Comment 9 Mike Nerone 2004-07-29 02:08:58 UTC]

Doh! My bad! I accidentally merged 6.0.3. Standby for update.

[Comment 10 Mike Nerone 2004-07-29 02:16:16 UTC]

No, I take it back. :| 6.0.6 exhibits the same behavior that I described in comment #8.

[Comment 11 Mike Nerone 2004-07-29 02:21:36 UTC]

Well, after restarting it again, that quirk went away. Sorry...I'm really tired. :/

After several trials, it seems to work.

[Comment 12 Maurice van der Pot (RETIRED) 2004-07-29 15:15:32 UTC]

I'll mark this report resolved/fixed, ok?
As far as the problem with 6.0.3 is concerned, if you're interested 
you can keep an eye on bug #26132 for the "venus won't stop" issue.

[Comment 13 Maurice van der Pot (RETIRED) 2004-08-01 05:48:45 UTC]

The init scripts were modified and the problem no longer occurs.
