Public bug reported: Release info: Description: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS Release: 16.04
Regardless of the /etc/ddclient.conf settings, simply installing the ddclient 3.8.2-2ubuntu2 package causes networking to completely fail after restarting an instance on Google Compute Engine (GCE). The serial console outputs the following errors repeatedly: May 2 22:36:37 ubuntu-test kernel: [ 139.218755] ll header: 00000000: 42 01 0a f0 00 17 42 01 0a f0 00 01 08 00 B.....B....... May 2 22:36:37 ubuntu-test kernel: [ 139.292581] IPv4: martian source x.x.x.x from x.x.x.x, on dev ens4 I tested this on two GCE images. ubuntu-1604-xenial-v20170330 ubuntu-1604-xenial-v20160429 This does not seem to be a GCE bug because other Ubuntu images work fine with ddclient and function as expected. ubuntu-1704-zesty-v20170413 with ddclient 3.8.3-1.1ubuntu1 ubuntu-1404-trusty-v20170424 with ddclient 3.8.1-1ubuntu2 Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a new network (not a legacy network) with default ports (22 for SSH etc). 2. Create a new Ubuntu instance using a 1604 image from GCE. 3. SSH into the instance and install ddclient. Set the config file with any contents. 4. Restart the instance. 5. Try to SSH to the instance or look at the serial console output to see the errors. I recovered my instance by attaching the boot disk to another instance and deleting the files in the package file list: http://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/all/ddclient/filelist The instance started up with functional networking like normal and I was able to complete the uninstall process with apt-get. After recovering my instance, I installed ddclient 3.8.3-1.1ubuntu1 from the Zesty universe repository. That package works fine on Xenial and operates as expected. ** Affects: ddclient (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/1688052 Title: ddclient 3.8.2-2ubuntu2 causes networking to fail on GCE To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ddclient/+bug/1688052/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
