The version of haproxy in the proposed pocket of Trusty that was purported to fix this bug report has been removed because the bugs that were to be fixed by the upload were not verified in a timely (105 days) fashion.

[Test Case] sudo apt install haproxy configure /etc/haproxy.cfg with a admin socket in /run/haproxy: global log /var/lib/haproxy/dev/log local0 log /var/lib/haproxy/dev/log local1 notice maxconn 20000 user haproxy group haproxy spread-checks 0 stats socket /var/run/haproxy/admin.sock mode 600 level admin stats timeout 2m Restart haproxy (will fail as /{,var/}run/haproxy does not exist) [Regression Potential] Minimal - same fix is in later package revisions [Original Bug Report] While testing upgrades of an Ubuntu 14.04 deployment of OpenStack from ~15.04 to 17.11 charms, I noticed that a number of the OpenStack charmed services failed to start haproxy when I rebooted their units: cinder, glance, keystone, neutron-api, nova-cloud-controller, and swift-proxy. The following was in /var/log/boot.log: [ALERT] 069/225906 (1100) : cannot bind socket for UNIX listener (/var/run/haproxy/admin.sock). Aborting. [ALERT] 069/225906 (1100) : [/usr/sbin/haproxy.main()] Some protocols failed to start their listeners! Exiting. * Starting haproxy haproxy [fail] The charm created /var/run/haproxy, but since /var/run (really /run) is a tmpfs, this did not survive the reboot and so haproxy could not create the socket. I compared the haproxy.cfg the charm creates with the default config shipped by the Ubuntu 16.04 haproxy package, and it seems that charmhelpers/contrib/openstack/templates/haproxy.cfg is closely based on the package, including the admin.sock directive. However, on Ubuntu 16.04, /etc/init.d/haproxy ensures that /var/run/haproxy exists before it starts haproxy: [agnew(work)] diff -u haproxy-1.4.24/debian/haproxy.init haproxy-1.6.3/debian/haproxy.init --- haproxy-1.4.24/debian/haproxy.init 2015-12-16 03:55:29.000000000 +1300 +++ haproxy-1.6.3/debian/haproxy.init 2015-12-31 20:10:38.000000000 +1300 [...] @@ -50,6 +41,10 @@ haproxy_start() { + [ -d "$RUNDIR" ] || mkdir "$RUNDIR" + chown haproxy:haproxy "$RUNDIR" + chmod 2775 "$RUNDIR" + check_haproxy_config start-stop-daemon --quiet --oknodo --start --pidfile "$PIDFILE" \ [...] charm-helpers or the OpenStack charms or both should be updated so that haproxy will start on boot when running on Ubuntu 14.04.
