FAIL exit status: 255 output: connect() : No such file or directory 0: autopkgtest [15:14:53]: test saslauthd: -----------------------] autopkgtest [15:14:53]: test saslauthd: - - - - - - - - - - results - - - - - - - - - - saslauthd FAIL non-zero exit status 1 The "connect()" error looks like the saslauthd unix socket isn't ready yet. That test happens right after a saslauthd restart: echo "Setting up saslauthd with mecanism ${mech}" setup_saslauthd ${mech} <--- restart happens here # test correct credentials echo -n "Authentication of user ${sasluser} with correct password should succeed... " result=0 output=$(testsaslauthd -u "${sasluser}" -p "${saslpass}" 2>&1) || result=$? <--- this is the authentication test Maybe we should loop for a few times in a check for the socket, and if it still fails, add extra logging to the output so it can be troubleshooted better. 1. https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/c/cyrus-sasl2/mantic/arm64 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cyrus-sasl2/+bug/2021505/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
