Description
Summary
Same as #73731, which is locked. Extra arguments are passed to FreeBSD's service in the wrong order, causing an invalid command.
The current code:
# e.g., service jail_name jail restart
ret = self.execute_command("%s %s %s %s" % (self.svc_cmd, self.arguments, self.name, self.action))What it should be:
# e.g., service jail restart jail_name
ret = self.execute_command("%s %s %s %s" % (self.svc_cmd, self.name, self.action, self.arguments))Note that there are flags supported by service, which would go in the current position. Perhaps the better option is supporting both flags and arguments?
From man 8 service:
The options are as follows:
-E var=value
Set the environment variable var to the specified value before
starting the script. This option can be used multiple times.
-e List services that are enabled. The list of scripts to check is
compiled using rcorder(8) the same way that it is done in rc(8), then
that list of scripts is checked for an "rcvar" assignment. If
present the script is checked to see if it is enabled.
-j jail
Perform the given actions under the named jail. The jail argument
can be either a jail ID or a jail name.
-l List all files in /etc/rc.d and the local startup directories. As
described in rc.conf(5) this is usually /usr/local/etc/rc.d. All
files will be listed whether they are an actual rc.d script or not.
-R Restart all enabled local services.
-r Generate the rcorder(8) as in -e above, but list all of the files,
not just what is enabled.
-v Be slightly more verbose.
