If that's the kernel that the "broken pipe" error happened on and you've rebooted into that kernel then yes, it worked and I wouldn't worry. The thing is that sometimes there's a race condition caused by the scriptlet where it may be sending data to, say, a logger, then shuts the logger down while some data is still waiting to be written. When that last bit of data tries to hit the pipe, it gets a broken pipe error because there's nothing on the other end of the pipe to receive it. It's minor, but annoying (and scary if you've never seen it). You'd see a similar error if, for example, you ssh to a remote server and then the remote server shuts down (or at least kills the ssh daemon). Any time you try to shove data down a pipe with nothing on the far end to receive it, you'll get that error. > (Tom) >> This has been happening for a while: >> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1497444 >> The bugzilla says it is fixed, but I guess not in f27. > > In comment 17, Russell notes that the "plumbing" problem still occurs. > This bug is "CLOSED RAWHIDE", but another bug was needed (1535458), and > it's still in state "NEW". > > Thank-you everyone for the help. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, AllDigital ricks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 226437340 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - Millihelen (n): The amount of beauty required to launch one ship. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/message/FO35JIDUTKTCZXZ47TIZD2QG57GCQBI3/
