https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D206511 --- Comment #2 from p5B2E9A8F@t-online.de --- >These are the results of various required _enable settings missing (or not= set >to YES or NO) from /etc/defaults/rc.conf and /etc/rc.conf{,.local}. In rc.conf there need to be settings different from default. There is no need for explicit setting "NO" and there should be none. A utility like service should not generate false warnings. This is extremely disturbant because administrators try to hunt down those warnings and start= a time consuming research, as these entries occur by random on the first look= .=20 Warnings in logfiles should not be misleading and they should not be false warnings. If this is true services does a poor job and this is a bug. services uses function checkyesno of /etc/rc.subr which issues the warning = but on different prerequisite. Obviously service needs its own function for its purpose. >The one that doesn't name a setting is particularly worrisome. Well this most probably is caused by the same problem. This is worrisome and points to a buggy implementation of service because it does not reveal the filename of the tested file. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
