Re: strange problem - server hangs at boot Runlevel 3 - RHEL4

Boot to rl 1 and see if there are maybe stale pid/lock files on your system:

/var/lock/subsys/crond
/var/run/crond.pid

If you find any of these, remove them and try again.

Don't really have any better ideas.

Hi,

I have a RHEL4 server which hangs on booting into the default runlevel
3. The bootprocess stopps at the crond.

Booting runlevel 1 manualy from grub works, starting the services by
hand works than too; e.g. networking, crond.

Switching to runlevel 3 by "init 3" works too and the crond is startet
as well, but I can't log in at the loginprompt; I doublechecked the
rootpassword, but I do get the log-messsage, that the login failed.

There are no errors in the logfiles concerning the default boot.

Any ideas how to track the problem down?

All I did was a reboot of the server ...

Thanks a lot for any hint!!!

Best regards

Götz
