[Bug 370932] Re: maradns init script silently fails during the boot, but works when run manually
I found this bug because I started to observe similar behaviour (10.04): maradns fails to start after reboot, but works flawlessly if started manually later. However, in my case it logs differently, so maybe my case is different: Mar 2 03:08:20 linode maradns.etc_maradns_mararc: Using default ICANN root servers Mar 2 03:08:20 linode maradns.etc_maradns_mararc: Log: Root directory changed Mar 2 03:08:20 linode maradns.etc_maradns_mararc: Fatal error: Problem binding to port 53.

Ubuntu version change can impact this by either network manager (which changes the way network starts noticeably) or upstart (which changes whole boot sequence). Considering ideas above, maybe the best solution would be to convert maradns startup from /etc/init.d script to upstart job which could both be flagged with start on net-device-up or sth similar, and annotated with respawn just in case... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370932 Title: maradns init script silently fails during the boot, but works when run manually -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This bug also seems to affect 9.10 Karmic. I can start maradns by hand without any issue, but when I reboot it doesn't come back up.

I am one of the maintainers of software called HIP for Linux (HIPL). I tripped into this same issue with HIPL.

We're starting the service in rcS.d instead of rc2.d. This is really a workaround, not a real solution, but it's better than removing splash.

I am also seeing this bug but I don't use wireless networking. However, as for Felix, removing splash from the appropriate kernel line in /boot/grub/menu.lst seems to fix the problem.

[Bug 370932] Re: maradns init script silently fails during the boot, but works when run manually
I can confirm this bug happening on Kubuntu 9.04... The logs do not show any strange messages, and in my case they are identical between the failed initial start and the subsequent start at the command line. I think the issue is related to intermittent connections -- probably wireless which is started later in the boot, possibly even after login if useing Networkmanager. Can the previous posters confirm they have such a setup? It is true in my case...

An ugly workaround might be to remove all rc.d references (update-rc.d -f maradns remove) and then start it from /etc/network/if-up.d/ . -- maradns init script silently fails during the boot, but works when run manually https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370932 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

By rising the log level, at the boot I find these diagnostics messages in /var/log/daemon: May 14 09:59:24 g1s maradns.etc_maradns_mararc: Adding root nameserver icann for zone .

It seems that the daemon is started and then dies somehow. At the end of the boot I start maradns manually with sudo /etc/init.d/maradns start and I found exactly the very same lines in the logs but the last line: May 14 10:05:02 g1s maradns.etc_maradns_mararc: Adding root nameserver icann for zone .

[Bug 370932] Re: maradns init script silently fails during the boot, but works when run manually
I've done some investigation with the sourcecode. There's an endless loop in server/MaraDNS.c from which you can exit only with and exit() or a couple of break instructions. I'v added some extra mlog() calls to identify the exiting point, recompiled the package and substituted to the official binary. At the reboot I've got the usual syslog messages and maradns failed to start. If I'm right, maradns died sonn after process initialisation. Maybe this is a real bug in the application but somehow was not happening in Ubuntu 8.10 (same maradns version number!) . -- maradns init script silently fails during the boot, but works when run manually https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/370932 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Some other tests. maradns is not starting if I run the initscript in /etc/rc.local which is run/linked as S99rc.local in the rc directories.
