Environment

GroupWise 18.1

Situation

rcgrpwise command (start stop status) does nothing if the empty space at the end of the 
gwadminservice.conf file is removed. Maybe it would be an idea to insert a warning in the 
gwadminservice.conf not to modify the file (like the warnings in other files).

To test - remove the empty line at the end of the gwadminservice.conf file, try to run the 
rcgrpwise command

Resolution

The current workaround is to add an empty line at the end of the gwadminservice.conf file.
