hi!

I've successfuly screwed up my system, so cron can't start no more :( The scenario here was that i've installed sysklogd at installing time, and later replaced sysklogd with metalog. The resoult now is (when i want to start vcron):

Code:
root@tortica root # /etc/init.d/vcron start
 * Starting syslogd, klogd...
start-stop-daemon: stat /usr/sbin/syslogd: No such file or directory
start-stop-daemon: stat /usr/sbin/klogd: No such file or directory
 * Failed to start syslogd, klogd                                                    [ !! ]

 * ERROR:  Problem starting needed services.
 *         "vcron" was not started.


Now what? Can't really find a way out of this :?

Hi z3ky.

It's possible that your rc-script dependency cache is not up to date. To refresh the cache you need to make sure that /etc/init.d/sysklogd no longer exists, and you also need to run /sbin/depscan.sh

I hope this helps. :)

Ciao, Brandy
