8927 open("/var/run/wackamole/wackamole.pid", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|
O_TRUNC|O_LARGEF
ILE, 0644) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
It tries to open the above file and fails... Then
8927 connect(4, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/dev/log"}, 110) = 0
8927 send(4, "<29>May 4 21:06:01 wackamole[89"..., 91,
MSG_NOSIGNAL) = 91
8927 exit_group(0) = ?
It looks as if it writes something to syslog. Can you tail /var/log/
messages and read the error? I assume it is failing to start because
it can't write its PID file.
