Public bug reported: Summary: udsiks2 automount failed to start after NFS export on an up to date 20.04.
Strange bug. After installing the nfs-server with a simple export: # /etc/exports: the access control list for filesystems which may be exported # to NFS clients. See exports(5). # # Example for NFSv2 and NFSv3: # /srv/homes hostname1(rw,sync,no_subtree_check) hostname2(ro,sync,no_subtree_check) # # Example for NFSv4: # /srv/nfs4 gss/krb5i(rw,sync,fsid=0,crossmnt,no_subtree_check) # /srv/nfs4/homes gss/krb5i(rw,sync,no_subtree_check) # /home/gebi/multimedia 192.168.0.1/24(rw,async) the udisks2 daemon fails to start. With the result of a broken gnome-shell without automount: bus-daemon[1094]: [system] Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.UDisks2': timed out (service_start_timeout=25000ms) here more in detail: journalctl -b Jul 31 20:30:27 gebi-desktop kernel: floppy: error 10 while reading block 0 Jul 31 20:30:29 gebi-desktop snapd[1129]: stateengine.go:150: state ensure error: persistent network error: Get https://api.snapcraft.io/api/v1/snaps/se> Jul 31 20:30:32 gebi-desktop tracker-miner-fs[1278]: Error creating proxy: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.gtk.vfs.UDisks2VolumeMonitor: Timeou> Jul 31 20:30:32 gebi-desktop dbus-daemon[1286]: [session uid=123 pid=1286] Activating via systemd: service name='org.gtk.vfs.GPhoto2VolumeMonitor' unit=> Jul 31 20:30:32 gebi-desktop dbus-daemon[1094]: [system] Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.UDisks2': timed out (service_start_timeout=25000ms) Jul 31 20:30:32 gebi-desktop gvfs-udisks2-vo[1816]: monitor says it's not supported Jul 31 20:30:32 gebi-desktop gvfs-udisks2-vo[1330]: monitor says it's not supported Jul 31 20:30:32 gebi-desktop dbus-daemon[1782]: [session uid=1000 pid=1782] Successfully activated service 'org.gtk.vfs.UDisks2VolumeMonitor' Jul 31 20:30:32 gebi-desktop dbus-daemon[1286]: [session uid=123 pid=1286] Successfully activated service 'org.gtk.vfs.UDisks2VolumeMonitor' Jul 31 20:30:32 gebi-desktop systemd[1254]: Starting Virtual filesystem service - digital camera monitor...

Seems to be realated to this: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=850464 Masking the blkmap service resolves this issue. Thus, I suggest to set this as default. IMHO: As novice user like I am, I needed hours to find this out and the "blkmapd - pNFS" feature is just needed in very special cases in an enterprise environment. ** Affects: nfs-utils (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1889939 Title: nfs export causes a Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.UDisks2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nfs-utils/+bug/1889939/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
