Public bug reported:
The /etc/init.d/samba script appears to try and start smbd/nmbd
improperly. If a user types "service samba restart" here is the
behavior:
root@cups:~# service samba restart
root@cups:~# echo $?
1
I tried to track down the problem a bit by putting "set -x" on the init
script:
root@cups:~# service samba start
+ /etc/init.d/nmbd start
So the nmbd init script appears to be exiting improperly without any
output. After putting set -x on /etc/init.d/nmbd:
root@cups:~# service samba start
+ /etc/init.d/nmbd start
+ PIDDIR=/var/run/samba
+ NMBDPID=/var/run/samba/nmbd.pid
+ unset TMPDIR
+ test -x /usr/sbin/nmbd
+ . /lib/lsb/init-functions
+ run-parts --lsbsysinit --list /lib/lsb/init-functions.d
+ [ -r /lib/lsb/init-functions.d/20-left-info-blocks ]
+ . /lib/lsb/init-functions.d/20-left-info-blocks
+ [ -r /lib/lsb/init-functions.d/50-ubuntu-logging ]
+ . /lib/lsb/init-functions.d/50-ubuntu-logging
+ LOG_DAEMON_MSG=
+ FANCYTTY=
+ [ -e /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh ]
+ true
+ init_is_upstart
+ [ -x /sbin/initctl ]
+ /bin/grep -q upstart
+ /sbin/initctl version
+ return 0
+ exit 1
Looking at /etc/init.d/nmbd:
24 case $1 in
25 start)
26 if init_is_upstart; then
27 exit 1
28 fi
And if we look at how /etc/init.d/samba start nmbd we can see why it
exits at this point:
16 case $1 in
17 start)
18 /etc/init.d/nmbd start
19 /etc/init.d/smbd start
20 /etc/init.d/samba-ad-dc start
Please note /etc/init.d/smbd also has a similar call to init_is_upstart.
Here's the behavior of all the init scripts in question when both smbd
and nmbd are stopped initially:
root@cups:~# /etc/init.d/nmbd start; echo $?
1
root@cups:~# /etc/init.d/smbd start; echo $?
1
root@cups:~# /etc/init.d/samba start; echo $?
1
root@cups:~# service nmbd start; echo $?
nmbd start/running, process 32731
0
root@cups:~# service smbd start; echo $?
smbd start/running, process 32741
0
root@cups:~# service smbd stop; echo $?
smbd stop/waiting
0
root@cups:~# service nmbd stop; echo $?
nmbd stop/waiting
0
root@cups:~# service samba start; echo $?
1
Expected behavior:
Calling "/etc/init.d/{smbd,nmbd} start" exits 1 and prints a short
message to stderr explaining that the user should be using "service
{smbd,nmbd} start".
Calling "service samba start" exits 0 and successfully starts smbd and
nmbd.
