Example, make a new up to date ubuntu 9.10 template, boot it

Start the guest

Problem 1 - NO NETWORKING :(

r...@new:/# ping google.com
ping: unknown host google.com


PROBLEM 2 - UPSTART IS NOT WORKING

Lets start it with upstart

r...@new:/# service networking restart
restart: Unknown instance:
r...@new:/# service networking stop
stop: Unknown instance:
r...@new:/# service networking start
start: Job failed to start
r...@new:/# ifconfig

PROBLEM 2 - UPSTART IS NOT WORKING

r...@new:/# initctl list | grep networking
networking stop/waiting

INITCTL RECOGNIZES "networking" , but service networking
start|stop|restart not working.

PROBLEM 3 - Starting the network manually fails

THERE IS A MISSING BOOT SCRIPT

r...@new:/# /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
                                                                         [ OK ]

DO YOU SEE HOW THE BOOT SCRIPTS ARE LOOKING FOR "/lib/init/mount-
functions.sh" ???

THE BOOT SCRIPT IS FAILING BECAUSE "/lib/init/mount-functions.sh" IS
MISSING.

RUNNING ifdown -a FOLLOWED BY ifup -a BRINGS THE NETWORK UP.

PROBLEM 4- SAME THING WITH EVERY SERVICE

Example Apache

Start the VPS

NO APACHE !!!

r...@new:/# ps aux
USER       PID %CPU %MEM    VSZ   RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
root         1  0.4  0.4   2336  1120 ?        Ss   01:03   0:00 init

root        29  0.0  0.6   3144  1624 ttyp1    Ss   01:03   0:00 -bash
root        40  0.0  0.3   2468   912 ttyp1    R+   01:03   0:00 ps aux

FIX - MANUALLY START APACHE

r...@new:/# service apache2 start


And  on, service by service

So, since Upstart is not working , one has to start each service one -
by -one

networking
mysql
apache

and on ...
