> until we know why resolvconf is failing to start for you on boot We know that the resolvconf job starts, otherwise /run/resolvconf wouldn't exist. The problem is that the job also get stopped.
I added touch commands to the scripts which show this. -------------------------------------------------- pre-start script touch /run/resolvconf-started mkdir -p /run/resolvconf/interface # Request a postponed update (needed in case the base file has content). touch /run/resolvconf/postponed-update # Enable updates and perform the postponed update. resolvconf --enable-updates end script post-stop script touch /run/resolvconf-stopped resolvconf --disable-updates end script ------------------------------------------------- After boot: # status resolvconf resolvconf stop/waiting # ls -l /run/resolvconf* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2012-02-16 22:37 /run/resolvconf-started -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2012-02-16 22:37 /run/resolvconf-stopped /run/resolvconf: total 4 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 2012-02-16 22:38 interface -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2012-02-16 22:38 postponed-update -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 151 2012-02-16 22:37 resolv.conf Interestingly, another job very much like resolvconf doesn't suffer from this problem: # cat /etc/init/foo.conf # upstart script for foo description "Initialize or finalize foo" start on mounted MOUNTPOINT=/run stop on runlevel [06] pre-start script mkdir -p /run/foo touch /run/foo/foofile end script post-stop script mv /run/foo/foofile /run/foo/foofile2 end script # status foo foo start/running # ls -l /run/foo total 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2012-02-16 22:37 foofile -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/933566 Title: Stopping resolvconf doesn't disable updates To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/resolvconf/+bug/933566/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
