Hi, actually I do not have any problem to fix anymore since the workaround procedure with podman described above totally solved my problem. (Improvement: replace 127 with $(id -u rabbitmq) and 138 with $(id -g rabbitmq)
But to test the bug fix I've setup a fresh 22.04 in LXD, installed rabbitmq-server, enabled -proposed, copied my backup of my old server into /var/lib/rabbitmq and ran a do-release-upgrade -p. And yes, the upgrade was denied: Unable to upgrade to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Currently, you have RabbitMQ server installed, which is not directly upgradable to the newer version. Upgrading may prevent the server from starting due to missing feature flags. For more information, please see https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2074309. Ursprünglicher Systemzustand wird wieder hergestellt Wird abgebrochen So yes, it kept me from breaking the server. However, I'd suggest to extend the message a bit, since a not so experienced admin just wouldn't know what to do now. I'd suggest to tell the three options: - stay safe, but outdated at 22.04 (for unknown time) - lose your database and all your data, and complete purge the rabbitmq- server package, do update, and do fresh install from scratch - stop daemon, backup /var/lib/rabbitmq, remove, but not purge the package, do the upgrade, use the workaround procedure with podman as described above (and no warranty that it works and images are still available), and reinstall/start. As far as I know, Ubuntu has a Wiki. Wouldn't it be better to make a wiki page with instructions instead of pointing to this bug? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2074309 Title: upgrade 22.04 -> 24.04 won't start due to feature flags To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/2074309/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
