You have an odd looking share definition at the end of your smb.conf: [<folder_name>] path = /home/kschindl/samba/ valid users = kschindl read only = no
I think "<folder name>" was meant to be replaced by something else. In addition do that, testparm is complaining about your "map to guest" choice: WARNING: Ignoring invalid value 'bad password;' for parameter 'map to guest' That is actually preventing the service from starting. Removing the ";" at the end of the line fixes that. ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Andreas Hasenack (ahasenack) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1693651 Title: package samba 2:4.4.5+dfsg-2ubuntu5.6 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1693651/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
