Package: tahoe-lafs
Version: 1.10.0-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Updated to systemd version 230-1
* What was the outcome of this action?
After upgrading to systemd version 230-1, I found that my tahoe node that had
been configured according to instructions in README.debian would no longer
start via 'systemctl start tahoe-lafs.service'. This worked prior to the
update to systemd. After some investigation, it appeared that systemd was
immediately stopping the service as soon it was started. I was able to modify
the /etc/init.d/tahoe-lafs script and customise a tahoe-lafs.service definition
file to allow my particular configuration to start successfully. I removed the
"su" lines in the init script and instead set the "User=" value to the owner of
the tahoe node in /var/lib/tahoe-lafs. Additionally, I specified
"Type=forking" in my tahoe-lafs.service file. Previous to my modifications, it
would appear that systemd is immediately stopping the tahoe service when it
detects the process is running as a different user than root.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
That the tahoe node would start as before the systemd update, without modifying
any scripts.
