I can attach my template if you wish. Honestly, no offense, but somebody familiar with VPS needs to look at this along with someone familiar with Upstart or at least the boot scripts.
If you do not know anything about VPS or OpenVZ, my bug report is not going to make sense. If you would like, download the OpenVZ live CD and run it in a virtual machine (it runs just fine in VMWare or VirtualBox) When you boot the live CD it will give you step by step directions to use OpenVZ http://wiki.openvz.org/Download/live_CD IMO the Centos Version is better =) An openVZ template is basically the same thing as performing a debootstrap install into a chroot. The Ubuntu 9.10 template, or guest, or (OpenVZ) VPS guest uses the host kernel as OpenVZ is a kernel patch for the host. It seems I was not clear with my last post, but i have no idea where or how you want me to use your --debug , either on the host or the OpenVZ guest so if it would help you to see the output of that command I need more detailed instructions then that. I have given you the exact error message I am getting : 1. Networking does not start. 2. The upstart boot scripts do not run. They do not run the upstart boot scripts, they do not start services, and they do not run /etc/rc.local 3. service networking restart is broken : r...@new:/# service networking restart networking: unrecognized service 4. /etc/init.d/networking gives an error message : r...@new:/# bash --debug /etc/init.d/networking restart * Reconfiguring network interfaces... .: 14: Can't open /lib/init/mount-functions.sh run-parts: /etc/network/if-up.d/mountnfs exited with return code 2 .: 14: Can't open /lib/init/mount-functions.sh run-parts: /etc/network/if-up.d/mountnfs exited with return code 2 And exits without starting the network. -- Upstart fails to boot in an OpenVZ VPS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/436130 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
