| markolya | Hi | 20:39 |
|---|---|---|
| markolya | I have ubuntu 10.04 on a server and experience pretty strange upstart behaviour | 20:39 |
| markolya | I have my own service config and it seems that whenever I do stop/start command just hangs until ctrl-c | 20:40 |
| markolya | even if I copy/paste known-to-work config there, like cron | 20:41 |
| markolya | moreover, if I save this service under different name it seems to work | 20:41 |
| markolya | I wasn't able to find any references to such issue | 20:43 |
| markolya | deleting service file doesn't help | 20:45 |
| sadmac | markolya: man 5 init, look at the expect stanza | 20:57 |
| markolya | thanks for the answer | 20:58 |
| markolya | I actually did look at it | 20:58 |
| sadmac | markolya: actually, that's not entirely consistent with the renaming thing.. | 20:58 |
| sadmac | markolya: hmm | 20:58 |
| sadmac | markolya: what name? | 20:58 |
| markolya | yes | 20:58 |
| markolya | "kittens", if this matters | 20:58 |
| sadmac | but it works with other names? | 20:59 |
| markolya | basically I take contents of cron.conf, write it to kittens.conf and start kittens hangs | 20:59 |
| markolya | if I write it to kittens1.conf it doesn't hang | 20:59 |
| markolya | I mean start kittens1 doesn't hang | 21:00 |
| sadmac | that's strange | 21:00 |
| sadmac | in fact I have no explanation | 21:00 |
| markolya | it actually wasn't like this when I started yesterday | 21:00 |
| markolya | I think some of my changes to conf file brought it to such state... | 21:00 |
| sadmac | markolya: have you tried rebooting? maybe upstart is retaining some sort of state around the name "kittens" | 21:00 |
| sadmac | yeah | 21:01 |
| markolya | I do not really want to reboot this machine | 21:01 |
| markolya | it looks like that it is retaining some sort of state | 21:02 |
| sadmac | yeah. | 21:02 |
| sadmac | not a lot of ways to clear that unfortunately | 21:03 |
| markolya | I was just thing that while I have this state I can provide some information to original author since it looks like a bug | 21:03 |
| sadmac | its semi-well-known. The exact cause isn't certain but the preferred fix is a redesign of that portion of the code, so I don't think we need it much narrower | 21:03 |
| markolya | hmm... ok... is there any bug on launchpad for this so I could see changes on it and try fixes when they are released? | 21:04 |
| sadmac | not sure. | 21:05 |
| markolya | sorry, I'm new here... are you Scott James Remnant? | 21:07 |
| sadmac | markolya: no. Keybuk is. He's not on now | 21:07 |
| markolya | oh, thanks | 21:08 |
| markolya | I'll probably continue using rc.d for now, thanks for your help! | 21:11 |
