Public bug reported: Binary package hint: upstart
init doesn't provide any warning if a config file in /etc/init fails to parse correctly. It just silently ignores the job. This can create difficult to debug problems, particularly if you accidentally break something early in the boot process. E.g., if you edit /etc/init/rc- sysconfig.conf and introduce a parse error, at next bootup your system will just hang with no indication as to what's going on. A warning during bootup about an unparsable config would be very helpful. ** Affects: upstart (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- init should warn about broken job configs at bootup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/547248 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
