Description Craig Andrews gentoo-dev 2007-04-13 18:29:36 UTC
In etc/init.d/webmin, a "--name" parameter needs to be added to start-stop-daemon. It seems this parameter is required for baselayout-2, whereas baselayout-1 didn't really care.

Also, after making that change, I get an error:
# /etc/init.d/webmin start
 * Starting Webmin ...
 * start-stop-daemon: /usr/libexec/webmin/miniserv.pl died               [ !! ]
 * ERROR: webmin failed to start

Despite this error, webmin is now running.

But, at least it's farther along than before.

I'm using app-admin/webmin-1.320 and sys-apps/baselayout-2.0.0_alpha1

Thanks!
