[Bug 1632575] Re: systemd starts two copies of ntp at boot time
No, I never saw this again. The very next day after filing this bug I had another monitoring warning about a stale ntpd pidfile, but this time there was no second ntpd process running, and journalctl showed a simple conflict with ntpdate during startup. I apt-get removed ntpdate and never saw any more ntpd problems again on this machine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1632575 Title: systemd starts two copies of ntp at boot time To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ntp/+bug/1632575/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1632575] Re: systemd starts two copies of ntp at boot time
Yeah this is just using a generated sytsemd unit for the sysv init file. Never the less I wasn't able to trigger that throughout some ntp upgrades in containers. The bug was already inactive for very long, but I think the reason is currently that it isn#t really actionable. @Marius - was that a one time issue or did you get that to be reproducible and debuggable back then? ** Changed in: ntp (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1632575 Title: systemd starts two copies of ntp at boot time To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ntp/+bug/1632575/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1632575] Re: systemd starts two copies of ntp at boot time
Unfortunately there were more unattended upgrades that require a reboot since I filed this bug, so systemd-analyze can't see what happened any more. As for systemd service files, I believe ntp has none. systemctl status ntp says Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/ntp; bad; vendor preset: enabled) which AFAIU means it's still using legacy sysvinit scripts. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1632575 Title: systemd starts two copies of ntp at boot time To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ntp/+bug/1632575/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1632575] Re: systemd starts two copies of ntp at boot time
Thank you for filing this bug, it does look like a race. We probably will need to see the systemd service files for ntp, at least. I wonder if any of the `systemd-analyze` subcommands might be helpful here to determine why ntpd is started twice. ** Changed in: ntp (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: ntp (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1632575 Title: systemd starts two copies of ntp at boot time To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ntp/+bug/1632575/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
