Which network service do you set your tortuga service to depend on? After an initial install, AI currently only supports setting up the system to use NWAM. There can be a latency from when the nwam service comes online before it actually establishes a network. This could potentially be what you're running into. Just to see if this is the case, can you try putting a ~60 second sleep at the beginning of the tortuga service's method script? [If this ends up being the case, there are other more workable workarounds as options, and further questions/discussions ...] thanks, -ethan >> >> I've attached the system messages log. >> >> Our service is the tortuga application mentioned on lines 176 and 178. >> >> You should also notice that on line 175 mDNSResponder fails. >> >> On line 173 the ethernet interface is just coming up. >> >> Before the ethernet interface is up, on line 172 routed is failing. >> This should not be running before the interface is available in my >> opinion. >> >> On line 170 the dhcpagent is failing to bind. >> >> Anyway the system startup will fail and drop in to maintenance mode. >> Once we have logged into the system via the console.
