[Bug 1120660] Re: Kernel Panic when running 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' ?

2014-01-18 Thread Arthur Borsboom
Yep, got the same issue on trusty.

The last thing on the console I see is setting up libc6:amd64 and then it 
changes into a black screen with a blinking cursor.
When I boot by adding text to grub I see a kernel panic which I am unable to 
capture in a log file.

My system, 64-bit Trusty, also got this bug when running 'sudo dpkg --configure 
-a'. 
Alas, there are no log entries for this panic.
Please, take a look at the attachments and initctl list output below:

2013-03-22 Thread James Hunt
@Rafal - yes, the problem has been fixed in Ubuntu. Are you sure you are
specifying the --no-log option correctly (two leading dashes)?  The
problem that was fixed relates directly to logging and that option
disables logging entirely.

If you still have a problem, please do the following:

1) modify the boot command line in grub to add --no-log --debug but also 
remove quiet and splash.
2) boot
3) take a picture of the messages on the screen and attach to this bug if 
possible.

[Bug 1120660] Re: Kernel Panic when running 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' ?

2013-03-16 Thread Rafal Cieślak
Has this been fixed? I seem to be affected by this bug, yet I cannot
update upstart to the newest version, as it triggers kernel panic when
it's configured. I also cannot boot up with the --no-log option, because
this causes a kernel panic immediately when the system begins to boot. I
would welcome ideas on how to upgrade upstart while omitting the
configuring phase, or getting around the kernel panic in some other way.

Should I report a new bug, or is it actually the same as this one, and
it's just my system that cannot upgrade?

I have the same problem.

I have my /var/log/ folder in a tmpfs filesystem and the dpkg
--configure -a and I have a script to create the default /var/log and
/var/cache folders. The folder /var/log/upstart exists.

Please, can you explain me where I need to add the --no-log option?

Thanks :)

2013-02-14 Thread filip
@Lito
in the grub boot screen (if you don't see it, press shift right after bios, 
sometimes you need to try several times as for me it doesn't always works and 
it just boots right away)
use the 2nd entry (advanced i think it is called)
than highlight the first entry and hit e to edit
there you add the --no-log in between the commands quiet and (no)splash
I editted on 2 places, you will see there some kind of if loop.
than just hit F10 to boot. That worked for me.

2013-02-11 Thread philuser
Me too am affected by this bug. after the last raring upgrade, the process is 
terminated with the message: 
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to 
correct the problem.

After running the command offered, I came across the bug 'kernel panics'
see the attached picture.

The 'sudo telinit u' causes the same error panic.

No way to make another upgrade !
Y is there a way to delete the current dpkg?

To chime in myself and give a differential diagnosis ...

I don’t have /var/log/upstart because /var/log is a tmpfs. Do I have to
create this subfolder?

[Bug 1120660] Re: Kernel Panic when running 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' ?

2013-02-11 Thread James Hunt
@Tobias - thanks for confirming. It seems this bug relates to directory
/var/log/upstart/ not existing (it will have been auto-created on a
default system).

So, one way to work around this issue is to simply create the directory:

$ sudo mkdir -p /var/log/upstart

(This avoids having to modify the postinst scripts which call 'telinit
u':

/var/lib/dpkg/info/upstart.postinst
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libjson0:*.postinst
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6:*.postinst

)

Could you confirm that creating /var/log/upstart resolves the issue for
you?

2013-02-11 Thread Tobias Wolf
James, I cannot confitm that this fixes the issue.

Manually creating  it with mkdir /var/log/upstart and doing telinit u
still panicked the kernel.

Then I put mkdir  /var/log/upstart into /etc/rc.local and it still
panicked after a reboot.

Is it that the creation happens too late?

I am now able to reproduce this issue.

The simplest way to work around this issue until we release an update is
to boot with '--no-log' to stop Upstart logging any job output.

[Bug 1120660] Re: Kernel Panic when running 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' ?

2013-02-10 Thread Tobias Wolf
I get this too and have narrowed it down to the re-exec of upstart in
some packages dpkg postinst scripts.

To trigger the panic you can just run sudo telinit u

When I removed the Upstart rexec lines from libc6 and libjson0 postinst
the dpkg configure went through.

** Package changed: linux (Ubuntu) = upstart (Ubuntu)

** Description changed:

- Recently, I am seeing a few kernel panics.
+ Recently, I am seeing a few kernel panics. [ Assertion failed in
+ log_serialise ]
  
  The latest one happens when asked to run E: dpkg was interrupted, you
  must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
  
  I've also seen them when trying to change compiz settings.
  
  They seem to have started a couple of days ago in the middle of an
  upgrade, I guess during some Xorg and/or nvidia related upgrades.
  
  However, it happens now each and every time when running 'sudo dpkg
  --configure -a'.

To catch the kernel panic message, I ran apt-get update  apt-get dist-
upgrade from the command-line. Please see screenshot attached. I can
reproduce this every time.
