However, I see that it has a > /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/lighttpd.conf, so it is ok. Hm, then how come it´s so troublesome? I have /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/httpd.conf. It seems to have remained because I had httpd (which is apache) installed and then switched to lighttpd and removed httpd. httpd is no longer installed. The only installed package referring to it is apache-commons-logging, and I don´t know why it hasn´t been removed. The contents of /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/httpd.conf indicate that this file is for apache. Why hasn´t this file been removed when httpd was removed? There is no file lighttpd.conf in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d. Does this mean that both packages, httpd and lighttpd, have serious problems because they do not remove and do not install files correctly? -- "Didn't work" is an error. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
