Public bug reported: This affects both 4.3.3-5ubuntu8 that exists in xenial right now and 4.3.3-5ubuntu9 which I just uploaded to fix another bug.
With the move to systemd service file, 'sudo systemctl stop isc-dhcp- server.service' just hangs. Here is the service file (from 4.3.3-5ubuntu9): [Unit] Description=ISC DHCP IPv4 server Documentation=man:dhcpd(8) Wants=network-online.target After=network-online.target After=time-sync.target ConditionPathExists=/etc/default/isc-dhcp-server ConditionPathExists=|/etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf ConditionPathExists=|/etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf [Service] EnvironmentFile=/etc/default/isc-dhcp-server RuntimeDirectory=dhcp-server # The leases files need to be root:dhcpd even when dropping privileges ExecStart=/bin/sh -ec '\ CONFIG_FILE=/etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf; \ if [ -f /etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf ]; then CONFIG_FILE=/etc/ltsp/dhcpd.conf; fi; \ [ -e /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases ] || touch /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases; \ chown root:dhcpd /var/lib/dhcp /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases; \ chmod 775 /var/lib/dhcp ; chmod 664 /var/lib/dhcp/dhcpd.leases; \ exec dhcpd -user dhcpd -group dhcpd -f -4 -pf /run/dhcp-server/dhcpd.pid -cf $CONFIG_FILE $INTERFACES' [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target Eg: $ sudo systemctl stop isc-dhcp-server.service <hangs> wait long enough and systemd will KILL it. In the logs: Mar 1 10:58:14 sec-xenial-amd64 systemd[1]: isc-dhcp-server.service: State 'stop-sigterm' timed out. Killing. Mar 1 10:58:14 sec-xenial-amd64 systemd[1]: isc-dhcp-server.service: Main process exited, code=killed, status=9/KILL Mar 1 10:58:14 sec-xenial-amd64 systemd[1]: isc-dhcp-server.service: Unit entered failed state. Mar 1 10:58:14 sec-xenial-amd64 systemd[1]: isc-dhcp-server.service: Failed with result 'signal'. Things I tried to resolve it, none of which worked: * add Type=forking * add Type=forking and remove '-f' from the dhcpd exec * adjust /run/dhcp-server to be root:root and 755 * adjust /run/dhcp-server to be dhcpd:dhcpd and 755 (this was in 4.3.3-5ubuntu8 but fails to create a pid file and was fixed in 4.3.3-5ubuntu9) * adjust /run/dhcp-server to be root:dhcpd and 775 * add Type=forking and remove '-f' from the dhcpd exec and use KillSignal=SIGINT (see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dhcpd#Service_file) This bug is not related to AppArmor. With 4.3.3-5ubuntu9 this bug persists and there are no apparmor denials. Furthermore, if I disable the apparmor profile, the bug persists. ** Affects: isc-dhcp (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1551855 Title: [xenial] systemctl hangs when stopping isc-dhcp-server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/isc-dhcp/+bug/1551855/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
