Public bug reported: Binary package hint: update-manager-core
I believe this is a bug in the feisty to gutsy upgrade process. I followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GutsyUpgrades to upgrade a brand new feisty install to gutsy. I did an apt-get update/upgrade to make sure I was up to date first and then followed the directions in GutsyUpgrades using do-release-upgrade. The upgrade seems to have gone ok (packages upgraded, system functioning, etc) except that it disabled my network interface (which was especially problematic since I was doing this upgrade over ssh). When restarting the NetworkManager/network my ssh connection froze: Setting up linux-generic (2.6.22.14.20) ... Setting up network-manager (0.6.5-0ubuntu15) ... Installing new version of config file /etc/dbus-1/system.d/NetworkManager.conf ... Auto interfaces found: lo eth0 eth1 eth2 ath0 wlan0 iface to disable = eth0 iface to disable = eth1 iface to disable = eth2 iface to disable = ath0 iface to disable = wlan0 Disabling interface: eth0 ... done. Disabling interface: eth1 ... done. Disabling interface: eth2 ... done. Disabling interface: ath0 ... done. Disabling interface: wlan0 ... done. * Reloading system message bus config... [ OK ] * Restarting network connection manager NetworkManager (no more response over ssh or ping after this point) Note that it says it is disabling eth0 and did in fact do so. I was able to fix this by going to the local console and editing /etc/network/interfaces and restarting networking. Before my fix interfaces contained: auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 #iface eth0 inet dhcp auto eth1 #iface eth1 inet dhcp auto eth2 #iface eth2 inet dhcp auto ath0 #iface ath0 inet dhcp auto wlan0 #iface wlan0 inet dhcp So that when networking was started it said it did not know how to handle any of the interfaces. I hope the upgrade is ok even though it ended this way, I would like some input on that. I am also able to upload any logs that might help in fixing this issue. ** Affects: update-manager-core (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- do-release-upgrade to gutsy disables eth0 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151169 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
