Hi.
When verbose output is enabled:
# grep VERBOSE /etc/default/networking
VERBOSE=yes
`networking.service` fails to bring up wlan network interface, which uses
`wpa_action` (but `wpa_action` is not essential here):
# cat /etc/network/interfaces
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
iface sgf.un inet static
address 192.168.2.7
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.2.0
broadcast 192.168.2.255
gateway 192.168.2.9
Let's start with:
# ip link show wlan0

They're happening, because /dev/stdout is a socket (to journald, i suppose),
but shell (/bin/sh, i think) tries to open it like:
open("/proc/self/fd/1", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC, 0666) = -1 ENXIO (No such
device or address)
write(2, "sh: 1: sh: ", 11) = 11
write(2, "cannot create /proc/self/fd/1: N"..., 56) = 56
write(2, "\n", 1) = 1
exit_group(2) = ?
which is not possible [1]. The fix is to remove '>/dev/stdout' and use '1>&2'
instead of '>/dev/stderr' in '/etc/wpa_supplicant/functions.sh'. Let's try
again after the patch. Stop the service and kill wpa_supplicant process:
