Correction: in sysvinit, /etc/default/halt is a config file for the /etc/init.d/halt script only, which uses it to decide whether to pass '-p' to halt. So this is already supposed to have the intended effect; and if I invoke 'halt -d -f -i -p -h' directly, it does power off the system. Likewise if I invoke 'sh -x /etc/init.d/halt stop', I see the correct command being run and the system powers off.
So something is going awry here specifically wrt /etc/rc0.d/S99halt when called via the 'halt' command. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/880240 Title: system doesn't turn off if "sudo halt" is given To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/880240/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
