@kat-amsterdam The fixes we are introducing are for upgrades to 18.04, which by default is not possible from 14.04.
Upgrade from 14.04 to 16.04 (trusty to xenial) has already been fixed a while back in landscape client, thus if one uses uptodate client, upgrades should succeed and reboot without any issues. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670291 Title: Landscape: Upgrade 14.04.5 to 16.04.2 fails unable to reboot Status in landscape-client package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in landscape-client source package in Trusty: Fix Released Status in systemd source package in Trusty: New Status in landscape-client source package in Xenial: Fix Released Status in systemd source package in Xenial: Fix Released Status in landscape-client source package in Bionic: Fix Released Status in systemd source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in landscape-client source package in Cosmic: Fix Released Status in systemd source package in Cosmic: Fix Released Bug description: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/10061 [Impact] * When logind is not available, shutdown command fails to schedule a shutdown, and despite its intentions to immediately shutdown, does not do so. [Test Case] sudo systemctl mask systemd-logind.service sudo systemctl stop systemd-logind.service shutdown +1 The expectation is that system goes to shutdown. It is buggy if the system remains up - i.e. command returns to shell with exit code 1. [Regression Potential] * It is a corner case to run against systemd-shim logind / or logind not otherwise available. The function still performs a clean-shutdown, and should not cause loss of work. [Other Info] * Original bug report, running against systemd-shim/systemd-service post trusty->xenial upgrade, pre-reboot. Used Landscape (Paid Canonical Subscription) to upgrade one of my machines. Landscape only shows "In Progress" for more than 8 hours now and asked for a reboot of the machine in a second alert. In the reboot attempt I get the message: ========================= Failed to set wall message, ignoring: Method "SetWallMessage" with signature "sb" on interface "org.freedesktop.login1.Manager" doesn't exist Failed to call ScheduleShutdown in logind, proceeding with immediate shutdown: Method "ScheduleShutdown" with signature "st" on interface "org.freedesktop.login1.Manager" doesn't exist ========================= Steps to reproduce: * Fully updated 14.04.5 machine * Open Landscape * Choose the machine * Choose Packages * This computer can be upgraded to a newer release * Apply * Wait 2 hours * Alert comes in a seperate Landscape message Machine is ready for reboot * Choose Info... Power * Deliver to selected computers as soon as possible * Error message I found this thread on reddit about this issue maybe the solution can be built into the upgrade script https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/4wy3go/trying_to_run_as_user_instance_but_the_system_has/ To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/landscape-client/+bug/1670291/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
