Adding a Trusty task & marking it invalid so we know that it doesn't concern Trusty (no systemd there)
** Also affects: nfs-utils (Ubuntu Trusty) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: nfs-utils (Ubuntu Trusty) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of नेपाली भाषा समायोजकहरुको समूह, which is subscribed to Xenial. Matching subscriptions: Ubuntu 16.04 Bugs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1590799 Title: nfs-kernel-server does not start because of dependency failure Status in nfs-utils package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in nfs-utils source package in Trusty: Invalid Status in nfs-utils source package in Xenial: In Progress Status in nfs-utils source package in Yakkety: In Progress Status in nfs-utils source package in Zesty: Fix Released Bug description: [Impact] * nfs-mountd doesn't get started because of a race condition happening when rpcbind.socket is not specified as a needed service for it to start. * nfs-server using rpcbind.target instead of using rpcbind.socket. Target should not be used (Comment #24) [Test Case] * Install nfs-kernel-server inside a xenial lxc guest and restart it until nfs-mountd doesn't start complaining on rpc error. * Comment #25 [Regression Potential] * Cons: Systemd dependencies could brake for nfs-server and nfs-mountd. * Pros: Patches have been accepted upstream (and tested).

There seems to be a circular dependency between nfs-mountd and nfs-kernel-server 2. I can get it working by changing the AFter,Requires in /lib/ssystemd/system/nfs-{mountd|server}.service files. I have managed to get nfs-kernel-server to start but not nfs-mountd. 3. /usr/lib/systemd/scripts/nfs-utils_env.sh references /etc/sysconfig/nfs which is Centos/RedHat location of this file. Also /etc/default/nfs does not exist. (possibly unrelated to this bug) 4. A file "/lib/systemd/system/-.slice" exists. this file prevents execution of 'ls *' or 'grep xxx *' commands in that directory. I am unsure whether this is intended by the systemd developers but it is unfriendly when investigating this bug. Attempted solution: 1. Edit /lib/systemd/system/nfs-server.service (original lines are commented out: [Unit] Description=NFS server and services DefaultDependencies=no Requires=network.target proc-fs-nfsd.mount rpcbind.target # Requires=nfs-mountd.service Wants=nfs-idmapd.service After=local-fs.target #After=network.target proc-fs-nfsd.mount rpcbind.target nfs-mountd.service After=network.target proc-fs-nfsd.mount rpcbind.target After=nfs-idmapd.service rpc-statd.service #Before=rpc-statd-notify.service Before=nfs-mountd.service rpc-statd-notify.service ... followed by a systemctl daemon-reload and a reboot. This results in nfs-kernel-server starting correctly but nfs-mountd not so. However starting nfs-mountd manually after reboot is successful: root@feynmann:~# systemctl status nfs-kernel-server.service ● nfs-server.service - NFS server and services Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/nfs-server.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (exited) since Thu 2016-06-09 15:07:23 BST; 1min 25s ago Process: 1391 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/rpc.nfsd $RPCNFSDARGS (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Process: 1384 ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/exportfs -r (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 1391 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Tasks: 0 Memory: 0B CPU: 0 CGroup: /system.slice/nfs-server.service Jun 09 15:07:23 feynmann systemd[1]: Starting NFS server and services...
