+ | ==== Dealing with crashed services ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sometimes openrc reports a service' | ||
+ | |||
+ | If one tries to start a crashed service, `rc-service` reports: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * WARNING: < | ||
+ | |||
+ | So one tries to stop it before starting again. | ||
+ | |||
+ | However in some situations, the service does not stop. This leads to a deadlock where one can neither stop the service nor start it. For such cases: | ||
+ | |||
+ | # rc-service < | ||
+ | * Manually resetting < | ||
+ | |||
+ | **zap** resets the service state, allowing us to start it again. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Errors while booting ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | After installing or updating the **openrc-services** packages, you may get errors like: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * checkpath: owner `netdata: | ||
+ | |||
+ | This is because **openrc-services** contains services for some packages not found in the base Slackware install, but present on SBo. | ||
+ | |||
+ | These usually go away on their own after the openrc cache is updated. | ||
