James: It seems that this is a chicken and egg problem when someone doesn't have an initramfs. I'm quite alright with logging being disabled if "/dev/pts" isn't mounted. The problem I have is the large amount of unhelpful errors that are printed on the console. If this could be a concise error, that would be great:
"init: Failed to create pty - temporarily disabling job logging" And that should be the only error, in my opinion. On the opposing side, I can see where having the specific job that wasn't logged noted. However, that doesn't happen now. And if it flooded the console, I don't think I'd be for it. Again, without knowing how Upstart processes jobs (maybe I should fix that), I would probably be okay with something like: "init: Failed to create pty - disabling job logging for the following: Job1, Job2, Job3, etc." Simply add a job to the end of the comma-separated list if it isn't logged. -Tim -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/980917 Title: Failed to create pty - disabling logging for job To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/980917/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
