Public bug reported: [Impact] On 16.04+ if you using upstart as your primary init system "enabled" services that _only_ have upstart scripts fail to start with invoke-rc.d (with a default policy). This is problematic as #DEBHELPER# tokens in maintscripts rely on invoke-rc.d to start/stop services and fail to start services on installation.
[Test Case] Boot into affected system with upstart as default init. Try starting an 'upstart only' service with 'invoke-rc.d service start'. It is expected this should work. [Regression Potential] 14.04/upstart behavior is that invoke-rc.d works, and 16.04/systemd also has invoke-rc.d start working with enabled services and default policy. 16.04/upstart should be the same. ** Affects: init-system-helpers (Ubuntu) Importance: High Assignee: Chris J Arges (arges) Status: In Progress ** Affects: init-system-helpers (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: init-system-helpers (Ubuntu Yakkety) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: init-system-helpers (Ubuntu Zesty) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: init-system-helpers (Ubuntu Zesty) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: init-system-helpers (Ubuntu Yakkety) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: init-system-helpers (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1691474 Title: invoke-rc.d service start fails on services with upstart-only scripts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/init-system-helpers/+bug/1691474/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
