Notice that the DHCPREQUEST message is still a broadcast message because the DHCP client has still not received an acknowledged IP. It is called request message because the client might deny the offer by requesting another IP address. Step 3: If the client accepts the offer, it then broadcasts a DHCPREQUEST message saying it will take this IP address. DHCPOFFER message could contain other information such as subnet mask, default gateway, IP address lease time, and domain name server (DNS). Today, we saw the solution provided by our Support Engineers to this DHCP error.Step 2: After receiving the discover message, the DHCP Server will dynamically pick up an unassigned IP address from its IP pool and broadcast a DHCPOFFER message to the client (*). In short, ‘isc-dhcp-server: Job failed to start’ error can happen if there is any issues with the commands that we run. This will display the specific complaints it has with the configuration file.Īlso, we can see the manual page for the details of -d and -f man dhcpd We can also run the DHCP daemon directly to get more information because the startup scripts will eat the error messages.
So we suggested either to change it to 10.0.0.0 or change the mask to 255.255.0.0.įinally, it must be as below. So it is not possible to use 10.10.0.0 with 8 bit subnet mask. Here, we found that the customer was using 8 bit subnet mask. Now let’s take a look at the solution our Support Engineers provide to resolve this error. sudo /etc/init.d/isc-dhcp-server startĪs a result, he received the below error message. Then he tried to start the server by running the below command. After installing isc-dhcp-server, he went to this one /etc/nf with the following command: default-lease-time 650 His eth0 has dynamic IP-address and eth1 has static IP-address. Recently, we had a customer who has eth0 and eth1. How we fix ‘isc-dhcp-server: Job failed to start’ Today we will see how our Support Engineers fix this DHCP error for our customers.
Here at Bobcares, we have seen several such DHCP-related errors as part of our Server Management Services for web hosts and online service providers. Wondering how to fix ‘isc-dhcp-server: Job failed to start’ error? We can help you fix it.
