Thanks, Andy,

I saw the following in the log file:

Thanks for any suggestion to fix the issue!

Hi,

If you look in /var/log/perfsonar/lsregistrationdaemon.log it should give you a reason as to why it will not start.

Thanks,

Andy

Greetings, Andy,

Thanks for your reply.

"/etc/init.d/perfsonar-regulartesting restart” helps. It restarts without complain.

But "/etc/init.d/perfsonar-lsregistrationdaemon restart” not, 

[root@r1prpps01 ~]# /etc/init.d/perfsonar-lsregistrationdaemon restart

/etc/init.d/perfsonar-lsregistrationdaemon stop: LS Registration Daemon (pid ?) not running

waiting...

/usr/lib/perfsonar/bin/lsregistrationdaemon.pl --config=/etc/perfsonar/lsregistrationdaemon.conf --pidfile=/var/run/lsregistrationdaemon.pid --logger=/etc/perfsonar/lsregistrationdaemon-logger.conf --user=perfsonar --group=perfsonar

/etc/init.d/perfsonar-lsregistrationdaemon start: LS Registration Daemon could not be started

Regards,

Rong

Hi,

For the last two it looks like they are already running. You might want to try feeding them "/etc/init.d/perfsonar-regulartesting restart” and "/etc/init.d/perfsonar-lsregistrationdaemon restart” so it will stop any existing instances and then start them back-up. 

Thanks,

Andy

Greetings, Michael,

Thank you very much for your explanation. I just found that the
documentation has updated to reflect this change.

I started the following services without a problem:

[root@r1prpps01 init.d]# /etc/init.d/bwctl-server start
/etc/init.d/bwctl-server start: bwctl-server (pid 3819) already running
[root@r1prpps01 init.d]# /etc/init.d/owamp-server start
/etc/init.d/owamp-server start: owamp-server (pid 13546) already running
[root@r1prpps01 init.d]# /etc/init.d/cassandra start
Starting Cassandra: OK


However, I can¹t start perfsonar-regulartesting and
perfsonar-lsregistrationdaemon
[root@r1prpps01 init.d]# /etc/init.d/perfsonar-regulartesting start
/usr/lib/perfsonar/bin/regulartesting.pl
--config=/etc/perfsonar/regulartesting.conf --pidfile=regulartesting.pid
--piddir=/var/run --logger=/etc/perfsonar/regulartesting-logger.conf
--user=perfsonar --group=perfsonar --daemonize
/usr/lib/perfsonar/bin/regulartesting.pl already running: 13579
at /usr/lib/perfsonar/bin/regulartesting.pl line 227

/usr/lib/perfsonar/bin/regulartesting.pl line 46
/etc/init.d/perfsonar-regulartesting start: perfSONAR Regular Testing
could not be started

[root@r1prpps01 init.d]# /etc/init.d/perfsonar-lsregistrationdaemon start
/usr/lib/perfsonar/bin/lsregistrationdaemon.pl
--config=/etc/perfsonar/lsregistrationdaemon.conf
--pidfile=/var/run/lsregistrationdaemon.pid
--logger=/etc/perfsonar/lsregistrationdaemon-logger.conf --user=perfsonar
--group=perfsonar
/etc/init.d/perfsonar-lsregistrationdaemon start: LS Registration Daemon
could not be started

Please advise if you know if I missed anything?

Are those the five service total that I need to start?

Thanks again,
Rong
