Comment Re:Question from a non-Linux user (Score -1) 765

Confirmed that this is still a serious bug on an updated CentOS 7 system:


# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS Linux release 7.0.1406 (Core)
# sed -i s#/usr/sbin/named#"/usr/sbin/named -broken"#g /usr/lib/systemd/system/named.service
# systemctl daemon-reload ; echo $?
0
# journalctl -r -u named
# sed -i s#"/usr/sbin/named -broken"#/usr/sbin/named#g /usr/lib/systemd/system/named.service

Notice the exit status of 0. systemd doesn't return the correct exit status. Also, when viewing the journal, you'd expect to see the error:

usage: named [-4|-6] [-c conffile] [-d debuglevel] [-E engine] [-f|-g]
                          [-n number_of_cpus] [-p port] [-s] [-t chrootdir] [-u username]
                          [-m {usage|trace|record|size|mctx}]
named: unknown option '-b'

but it is not in the journal. systemd swallows the stderr output and reports the incorrect exit status. This makes it very difficult to troubleshoot start-up problems. I've wasted many hours because of this systemd bug.

It used to be great. It did exactly what you needed it to do and no more. Now it is a bloated mess like Azureus/Vuse. Now when I load UTorrent, my Windows machine slows down so much it is unusable. It loads gigabytes of ads per day. I have ISDN at home right now, and if you let it run 24/7, you can still download a surprising amount of files. That is except with the new version of uTorrent. It makes the ads a higher priority than BitTorrent so your files take days or weeks longer than they should.

Bullshit. You just hate Bono because he supports freedom. The IRA has been fighting against your kind for decades. You people forced them to resort to bombings of innocent people. You are responsible for the death of children. You and your kind. Bono is right to support violence when fighting against this sort of horrific opression.

And that is the crux of the issue! The Democratic governor appointed a group to manage the user acceptance testing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acceptance_testing#User_acceptance_testing). The site passed. At that point, Oracle is not responsible for any flaws. It was reviewed and tested by the customer and accepted. Also, a group of subject matter experts (SME) picked by the governor were involved in every step of the process and approved every step. That proves the governor is a DINO. He is not a Democrat. He might be a fake member of the party, but he is really a Republican. He didn't want his subjects to be able to get health care. Just last week he and 15 other state employees resigned for stealing money. The IRS is no investigating them. Republicans are a cancer.

I think three of my last four systemd posts were marked as trolls even though I gave specific examples of bugs. The systemd community is simply toxic.

Last night, I created a bug at:

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/e...

With a script I found from:

http://www.reddit.com/r/linux/...

that I was able to use to reproduce two different systemd bugs with on a Red Hat 7 and a CentOS 7 system. It is a well written and very self-explanatory example. I can no longer find the bug. It looks like they deleted it.
