Error on boot in -current: "chown: cannot access '/var/run/named': No such file or directory"
by MarcT from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5043V)
Just a quick bug-report for -current
I'm seeing the error "chown: cannot access '/var/run/named': No such file or directory" just before "Starting BIND: /usr/sbin/named" on boot.
I'm running bind as root.
/var/run is cleared out by rc.S, and in rc.bind there's no "mkdir -p" for the case when bind is running as root - so the path doesn't exist when "chown -R root /var/run/named" is executed.
