Package: nfs-kernel-server
Version: 1:1.3.4-2.1+b1
Severity: normal
I have recently changed my NFS setup so that one of the intermediate paths for
the
exported filesystem is a symlink. With this setup, trying to start the system
with
systemctl start nfs-server
fails, with `systemctl status nfs-server` reporting:
● nfs-server.service - NFS server and services
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/nfs-server.service; enabled; vendor
preset: enabled)
Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Sat 2018-02-10 19:06:15 CET; 14h ago
Process: 27521 ExecStopPost=/usr/sbin/exportfs -f (code=exited,
status=0/SUCCESS)
Process: 27520 ExecStopPost=/usr/sbin/exportfs -au (code=exited,
status=0/SUCCESS)

'exit-code'.

journalctl -u nfs-server-.service -b has exactly those lines too.
Running all the appropriate daemons manually, including the sequence exportfs
-f, exportfs -au, exportfs -r works correctly,
with the final export being /<path>/<actual directory pointed to by
symlink>/<target> as expected.

Hi
[This reply and bug closer is sent for doing BTS maintenance for
src:nfs-utils bugs]
This bug was reported against a very old nfs-utils version without much
followups/triaging itself.
If you can reproduce it with the current version in unstable/testing or
stable at least, please reopen the bug,
https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control for details.
Regards,
Salvatore
