- sysklogd-1.3.31-1. Initial RPM.
- Notice the line below in syslog.init (installed as /etc/rc.d/init.d/syslog):
killproc klogd -TERM; usleep 1000000
I used this rather than just \"killproc klogd\" because in Terminate()
in klogd.c there is a \"sleep(1);\" which means after terminating signal is
received the daemon will quit one second later. This confuses killproc()
in /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions because killproc() checks if klogd process
is still alive only 100000 microseconds (0.1 second) after -TERM signal
is sent to the process, and it finds this to be true. So it sends a -KILL
signal to it again, then kill reports \"xxxxx: No such process\". This fix
gets rid of this annoying message.
