Hi, I've tried upgrading from HAProxy 3.0.6 to 3.1.0. On my primary active loadbalancer this succeeds, but on my back-up load balancer HAProxy will not start. Moreover, it fails silently without logging anything.
The config on both loadbalancers is the same except for the backup having no active VRRP IP's ofcourse. When starting HAProxy in debug mode it just starts without problem, Checking the config gives no errors, but HAProxy behaves 'odd'. When I run haproxy -c -V -f /path/to/config I first return to the prompt and then get the output of the check. Like this: root@lb01-b:~# haproxy -c -V -f /etc/haproxy/conf.d/ root@lb01-b:~# Configuration file is valid Systemd output: Dec 03 09:47:10 lb01-b.pictura-hosting.nl systemd[1]: haproxy.service: Control process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE ░░ Subject: Unit process exited ░░ Defined-By: systemd ░░ Support: https://www.debian.org/support ░░ ░░ An ExecReload= process belonging to unit haproxy.service has exited. ░░ ░░ The process' exit code is 'exited' and its exit status is 1.
