I have a bug on OI illumos: avahi-daemon (and multicast) service runs fine, until I log-in through lightdm into my MATE graphical user session. Then, soon there after, the local avahi-bridge-dsd tries to restart and that fails now. When I issue # svcadm restart avahi-bridge-dsd or # svcadm clear avahi-bridge-dsd I cannot bring back online the avahi MDNS service. After restarting the system with # reboot,

the avahi-daemon service runs again good, until I log-in through the graphical log-in manager. Thanks! Here is the log-file entry:

1365 Process 1655 died: No such process; trying to remove PID file. (/var/run/avahi-daemon//pid)

1366 Failed to kill daemon: No such process

1367 [ Jul 2 15:22:20 Method "stop" exited with status 0. ]

This is taken from:

1365 Process 1655 died: No such process; trying to remove PID file. (/var/run/avahi-daemon//pid)

1366 Failed to kill daemon: No such process

/var/svc/log/system-avahi-bridge-dsd:default.log

Aedil: you might want to try asking the #openindiana or #oi-dev

as well

richlowe: Ok. Thank you.
