[Bug 664768] Re: package cups 1.4.4-6ubuntu2.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script killed by signal (Terminated)
I've had the same problem when updating to cups_1.4.4-6ubuntu2.2_amd64.deb. I suspect it's due to this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/672438 -- package cups 1.4.4-6ubuntu2.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script killed by signal (Terminated) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/664768 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

I include an strace of 'cups start', where it hangs on poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}], 1, -564398304 After this, I have a process: root 3587 1 0 22:49 ?00:00:00 /bin/sh -e /proc/self/fd/12 which is spawning a 'sleep 0.5' could not make out where this one leads to. root 4544 3587 0 22:54 ?00:00:00 sleep 0.5 root 4547 3587 0 22:54 ?00:00:00 sleep 0.5 root 4551 3587 0 22:54 ?00:00:00 sleep 0.5 root 4554 3587 0 22:54 ?00:00:00 sleep 0.5 root 4558 3587 0 22:54 ?00:00:00 sleep 0.5 root 4561 3587 0 22:54 ?00:00:00 sleep 0.5 If I kill the 'sh /proc...' process, the strace log unblocks, and gives out the contents of the second file (strace-start-cups-2.txt). In the end, cupsd ir running fine, despite this nasty kill process. ** Attachment added: strace start cups https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/664768/+attachment/1724443/+files/strace-start-cups.txt -- package cups 1.4.4-6ubuntu2.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script killed by signal (Terminated) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/664768 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

The first time I tried the update with 'apt-get upgrade', it hung on 'cups stop'. I killed the process, and apt continued, complaining it did not install everything. I then stopped (had to kill -9) cups manually, and tried the upgrade again. This time it hung on 'cups start'. I again killed the hung process, and apt finished the install. At the moment, I'm unable to start or stop cupsd, since it hangs on 'start cups'. Since the init.d script now instructs to use start and stop (initclt)... I'm stuck I've just re-installed all cups related pkgs, with the same result. apt-get hungs on 'start cups'. If I kill 'start cups', apt-get continues and reaches the re-install job batch with success. How can I debug why is this hanging? initctl and cupsd have no debug options...

The problem seems to be the execution of 'start cups'... running '/etc/init.d/cups restart' while the post-installation script is hanging at least *seems* to resolve the issue here. -- package cups 1.4.4-6ubuntu2.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script killed by signal (Terminated) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/664768 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
