[Bug 574773] Re: Cannot make directory '/var/run/screen': Permission denied (convert init to upstart)
I'm not sure if this will help but when I see this issue it is always after a system reboot. I have not seen this occur from a power on boot. -- Cannot make directory '/var/run/screen': Permission denied (convert init to upstart) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/574773 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

My guess is that this would work fine in most situtations. However, I think that you would really want 'start on filesystem' rather than 'local-filesystems'. see 'man filesystem' for more info. The reasoning is that /var and even /usr could be on remote filesystems. If var were remote, this would run before var was mounted, then the mount would go over the top. All that said, I would suggest asking the other Scott. -- Cannot make directory '/var/run/screen': Permission denied (convert init to upstart) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/574773 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 574773] Re: Cannot make directory '/var/run/screen': Permission denied (convert init to upstart)
This bug is biting *a lot* of people, and biting me quite frequently on Lucid. I suggest that we SRU this fix. I'd like to have Scott (or someone) carefully review the upstart script, as converting screen's init script to upstart generally would not be handled in an SRU. ** Also affects: screen (Ubuntu Lucid) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: screen (Ubuntu Lucid) Status: New = In Progress ** Changed in: screen (Ubuntu Lucid) Importance: Undecided = Medium ** Changed in: screen (Ubuntu Lucid) Assignee: (unassigned) = Dustin Kirkland (kirkland) ** Changed in: screen (Ubuntu Lucid) Milestone: None = lucid-updates -- Cannot make directory '/var/run/screen': Permission denied (convert init to upstart) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/574773 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
