Package: debian-goodies Version: 0.63 Severity: normal checkrestart fails on one (and only one) of my Debian 8 jessie systems. The odd thing is that I have two more-or-less "identical" servers used as Nginx API hosts. The two are managed using Salt and so should not be deviated from each other package or config-wise. However, I only get this issue on one of them.
The error I get is just a Python traceback. Nothing too descriptive: shell#> checkrestart Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/checkrestart", line 637, in <module> main() File "/usr/sbin/checkrestart", line 131, in main toRestart = lsofcheck(blacklist = blacklist) File "/usr/sbin/checkrestart", line 284, in lsofcheck process = processes.setdefault(data,Process(int(data))) File "/usr/sbin/checkrestart", line 557, in __init__ data = self.which(data) File "/usr/sbin/checkrestart", line 572, in which if os.path.isabs(program): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/posixpath.py", line 61, in isabs return s.startswith('/') AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'startswith' I'm not sure how much more detail I can add here, given the simple nature of this program's functioning. Let me know if I can provide any other information.
