Description

When running svc status for an unknown service you get:

root: pfSsh.php playback svc status unknown
/bin/pgrep -anx ''pgrep: Cannot compile regular expression `' (empty (sub)expression)

Service unknown is stopped.

Two issue here really:
- is_process_running generates an error when $process is "". This is addressed by the attached patch
- svc probably should return something like "Unknown service: unknown".

  • Category set to Services
  • Priority changed from Normal to Very Low
  • Target version set to 2.5.0

Since that can only happen by manually running an command with an invalid service name, it would be nice to address but not a priority.
