[Bug 430883] Re: Can start, but not restart, a stopped Upstart job
Not all upstart jobs correspond to running services. 'networking' is one that does not. 'stop/waiting' is the expected state for a task that has run, and finished. -- Can start, but not restart, a stopped Upstart job https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430883 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 430883] Re: Can start, but not restart, a stopped Upstart job
I am using karmic up-to-date (upstart-0.6.3-11 and debhelper-7.3.15ubuntu3) and still broken. There is no way to stop/start a service: r...@quimerix:~# status networking networking stop/waiting r...@quimerix:~# start networking networking stop/waiting r...@quimerix:~# stop networking stop: Unknown instance: r...@quimerix:~# stop networking stop: Unknown instance: r...@quimerix:~# start networking networking stop/waiting ? And the old but working /etc/init.d says r...@quimerix:~# /etc/init.d/networking start Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8) utility, e.g. service networking start Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an Upstart job, you may also use the start(8) utility, e.g. start networking networking stop/waiting So explain me how its supossed that i can restart a service? -- Can start, but not restart, a stopped Upstart job https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430883 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 430883] Re: Can start, but not restart, a stopped Upstart job
debhelper side should be fixed in 7.3.15ubuntu3. Changelog: debhelper (7.3.15ubuntu3) karmic; urgency=low * dh_installinit: - Create the upstart-job symlink even when --upstart-only is called, since this simplifies implementation of... - --restart-after-upgrade: we can't use the upstart 'restart' command here because this will give wrong behavior if we're adding a new job to an existing package; instead just use the standard invoke-rc.d snippet, which (combined with the above) will at least give us compatibility with policy-rc.d for preventing stopped jobs from starting on upgrade. (N.B.: prerm scripts could also safely reuse the invoke-rc.d handling instead of calling 'stop' directly, but leaving this alone for now because the current behavior is only minorly buggy.) - Drop unnecessary UPSTART_ONLY check; --upstart-only should never be set without having an upstart job so this is redundant. - postinst-reboot-required is never the right snippet to include here. - Merge in the final changes to the upstartification as accepted into debhelper upstream, dropping the --onlyscripts-upstart option from the documentation but mapping it to --onlyscripts for compatibility in karmic. * autoscript/postinst-upstart: typo fix. ** Changed in: debhelper (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- Can start, but not restart, a stopped Upstart job https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430883 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 430883] Re: Can start, but not restart, a stopped Upstart job
Had a closer look at policy, and see that it says: `restart' stop and restart the service if it's already running, otherwise start the service So upstart-job needs to be changed to implement this behavior still.

[Bug 430883] Re: Can start, but not restart, a stopped Upstart job
This is by design. Upstart's "restart" command is intended to *only* atomically restart a running instance, that's because I consider it a bug that a restarting a service that is not running can start it in the old system. This can mean that a sysadmin's desire to have a service not running is not honoured, and after an upgrade, have it started again without their consent. Also note that in Upstart, "restart" *will not* reload the /etc/init/*.conf file - so any changes are not honoured. You have to fully stop and start the service (e.g. across a normal upgrade) to have changes in the conf file respected. ** Changed in: upstart (Ubuntu) Status: New => Won't Fix -- Can start, but not restart, a stopped Upstart job https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430883 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
