Package: systemd-sysv Version: 232-25+deb9u3 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I have set up unattended-upgrades to reboot my machine at 04:00 when necessary. Internally, unattended-upgrades runs /sbin/shutdown -r 04:00 trying to achieve this. This fails as evidenced by these (dated) log messages Apr 25 06:55:18 easy apt.systemd.daily[38369]: Found /var/run/reboot-required, rebooting Apr 25 06:55:18 easy apt.systemd.daily[38369]: Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory I have tried running the shutdown directly from the commandline with identical results root@debian:~$ shutdown -r 04:00 Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory root@debian:~$ shutdown -r Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory root@debian:~$ shutdown Failed to connect to bus: No such file or directory I had expected the shutdown to behave as documented. I have searched the debian/changelog for 238-4 on the terms shutdown and reboot but did not find any indication that this might have been fixed. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.4 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-6-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968), LANGUAGE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages systemd-sysv depends on: ii systemd 232-25+deb9u3 systemd-sysv recommends no packages. systemd-sysv suggests no packages. -- no debconf information Hope this helps, -- Olaf Meeuwissen, LPIC-2 FLOSS Engineer -- EPSON AVASYS CORPORATION Free Software Foundation Associate Member since 2004-01-27 Support Free Software https://my.fsf.org/donate Join the Free Software Foundation https://my.fsf.org/join
