What's on line 164 of /sbin/init.d/SnmpMaster?

Do you have any "junk" files in /etc/rc.config.d/?

[James R. Ferguson]

HI:

Look at your '/etc/rc.config.d/SnmpMaster' file. You appear to have lost the "#" comment mark on the line:

SNMP_MASTER_START=1 # Start the master SNMP agent.

Thanks for all your replies.

Line 164 is:

. /etc/rc.config # Get all of them just in case.

Here is the list of files under the etc:
# ls /etc/rc.config.d

===============
Here is line in /etc/rc.config.d/SnmpMaster


SNMP_MASTER_START=1# Start the master SNMP agent
export SNMP_MASTER_START

Hi:

It appears that your "#" is joined without intervening whitespace:

SNMP_MASTER_START=1# Start the master SNMP agent.

That would give the result you see if true.

You are so right. After put a space between them, now I just got one line of such error.
There must be another place for such issue.

# /sbin/init.d/SnmpMaster start
/sbin/init.d/SnmpMaster[164]: Start: not found.

Not sure if my subagent is started or not. Do you know how to list all subagents got started?

Hi (again):

> There must be another place for such issue.

You probably have another copy of the '/etc/rc.config.d/SnmpMaster' file in the '/etc/rc.config.d' directory with the same problem. You can keep backup copies of files here ONLY if you follow the rules documented in '/etc/rc.config' and I'll bet that you haven't!

One way to look for problems is this:

# sh -xc ". /etc/rc.config" 2>&1|more

HI (again):

Actually this works better at finding the errant file(s):

# sh -vx /etc/rc.config 2>&1|more

The actual filename will appear as 'fname=' like:

+ fname=SnmpMaster
+ [ -f /etc/rc.config.d/SnmpMasterY -a SnmpMasterY != core -a SnmpMasterY = SnmpMasterY ]
+ . /etc/rc.config.d/SnmpMasterY
+ Start the master SNMP agent.
+ SNMP_MASTER_START=1#
/etc/rc.config[13]: Start: not found.

...

Yes, it works now after changing one more line.

Thank you so much.
