Hi, you reported this on tomcat8 8.0.32-1ubuntu1.4 on Xenial. But on Xenial this is using not a systemd service but a generated from init script.
Therefore the file /etc/systemd/system/tomcat8.service does not exist there. But it does in your case, here from your error log: systemd-sysv-generator[8168]: Configuration file /etc/systemd/system/tomcat8.service is marked executable. Please remove executable permission bits. Proceeding anyway. systemd[1]: Configuration file /etc/systemd/system/tomcat8.service is marked executable. Please remove executable permission bits. Proceeding anyway. systemd[1]: tomcat8.service: Service has Restart= setting other than no, which isn't allowed for Type=oneshot services. Refusing. The latter is a fatal error and breaking it. I'd expect only a generated service file which is working fine for me, you can output what is used via: $ systemctl cat tomcat8 Also $ systemctl status tomcat8 should say ... Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/tomcat8 You could check where this file comes from by: dpkg -S /etc/systemd/system/tomcat8.service If this is from a package according to dpdk please let us know, but according to my apt-file check it is not. Due to all that the package upgrade fails and that blocks your upgrades in general. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1740424 Title: package tomcat8 8.0.32-1ubuntu1.4 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/tomcat8/+bug/1740424/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
