Zabbix_agentd And server Restart (DEBIAN)

[benito103e]

Hi everybody,

I've Zabbix 1.8.2 on a Debian 5.0

First problem

I noticed a problem when i want to restart my agentd or server with

/etc/init.d/zabbix-agent restart

-zabbix can't kill the running process

In fact zabbix can't find the pid file because of in my /etc/init.d/zabbix-agent

NAME=zabbix_agentd
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/home/zabbix/bin
DAEMON=/home/zabbix/bin/${NAME}
DESC="Zabbix agent daemon"
[COLOR="red"]PID=/var/tmp/$NAME.pid[/COLOR]

Explication
- I have to change the /var/tmp/$NAME.pid to /tmp/$NAME.pid



Second problem
After That i noticed that restart bug and i have to make a stop start manually :

I think we should have to add a sleep between stop and start on the restart :

restart|force-reload)
	$0 stop
        [COLOR="Red"]sleep 2[/COLOR]
	$0 start

Perhaps it's me who have make a bad installation ??

I hope it'll help somebody

I've checked an installation of agent with :

apt-get install zabbix-agent

And the configuration files are good :
- "sleep" command in the restart
- directory of PID files

Thus the problem expressed above concerns only the installation with downloaded .tar.gz

But the version of agent with aptitude installation is 1.4.6

I hope it'll help somebody
