Package: watchdog Version: 5.14-3 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I was unsing watchdog sucessfully on a machine on which the disk controller ocasionaly hangs. After upgrading to debian 8.1 the machine keept freezing again and was not reset. I checked my runlevel => 5 I did a fresly update-rc.d for watchdog and runlevel 5 root@quasar:~# ls -l /etc/rc5.d/S16watchdog lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Jul 1 16:58 /etc/rc5.d/S16watchdog -> ../init.d/watchdog Looks right. But still: root@quasar:~# /etc/init.d/watchdog start [ ok ] Starting watchdog (via systemctl): watchdog.service. root@quasar:~# /etc/init.d/watchdog stop [ ok ] Stopping watchdog (via systemctl): watchdog.service. root@quasar:~# /etc/rc5.d/S16watchdog start [....] Starting S16watchdog (via systemctl): S16watchdog.serviceFailed to start S16watchdog.service: Unit S16watchdog.service failed to load: No such file or directory. failed! root@quasar:~# /etc/init.d/watchdog status * watchdog.service - watchdog daemon Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/watchdog.service; static) Active: active (running) since Sam 2015-08-08 09:59:54 CEST; 5s ago Process: 3796 ExecStopPost=/bin/sh -c [ $run_wd_keepalive != 1 ] || false (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Process: 3875 ExecStart=/bin/sh -c [ $run_watchdog != 1 ] || exec /usr/sbin/watchdog $watchdog_options (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Process: 3872 ExecStartPre=/bin/sh -c [ -z "${watchdog_module}" ] || [ "${watchdog_module}" = "none" ] || /sbin/modprobe $watchdog_module (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 3877 (watchdog) CGroup: /system.slice/watchdog.service `-3877 /usr/sbin/watchdog -s Aug 08 09:59:54 quasar.woody.ch watchdog[3877]: int=30s realtime=yes sync=yes soft=no mla=0 mem=0 Aug 08 09:59:54 quasar.woody.ch watchdog[3877]: ping: no machine to check Aug 08 09:59:54 quasar.woody.ch watchdog[3877]: file: no file to check Aug 08 09:59:54 quasar.woody.ch watchdog[3877]: pidfile: no server process to check Aug 08 09:59:54 quasar.woody.ch watchdog[3877]: interface: no interface to check Aug 08 09:59:54 quasar.woody.ch watchdog[3877]: temperature: no sensors to check Aug 08 09:59:54 quasar.woody.ch watchdog[3877]: test=none(0) repair=none(0) alive=/dev/watchdog heartbeat=none to=root no_act=no force=no Aug 08 09:59:54 quasar.woody.ch watchdog[3877]: watchdog now set to 60 seconds Aug 08 09:59:54 quasar.woody.ch watchdog[3877]: hardware watchdog identity: Software Watchdog Aug 08 09:59:54 quasar.woody.ch systemd[1]: Started watchdog daemon. root@quasar:~# /etc/rc5.d/S16watchdog status * S16watchdog.service Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory) Active: inactive (dead) It is the same script, just the location where it is started is different. I did try to debug the init script and find some relative paths or similar, there are none.
