I would check that your systemclock is set to the right date and time. Then run the command
"touch" on the mentioned files and try again.

nick_already_taken,
I are right. I have just set the BIOS time. I turned back to the normal time from the "day light save time".
Should I have to wait one hour before to turn the computer on?

you could run this as it may help:

Code: Select all

# touch /etc/init.d/* /etc/conf.d/*

It will update the timestamps on these files and should remove the error messages.
