Public bug reported: on 13.04 image on azure $ cat /etc/cloud/build.info build_name: server serial: 20130601 $ lsb_release -c Codename: raring
A couple things wrong/weird: * ifdown says the interface isn't configured (but it clearly is) * something ran 'start networking' rather than letting the networking come up on its own as a result of configuration in /etc/network/interfaces and network-interface.conf * dhclient is dead (seems to not like the lease response?) * static-networking-up has (probably) not been emitted as it would be emitted based on eth0 coming up correctly (through /etc/network/if-up.d/upstart) I'm moderately surprised that there is not other fallout of this. It seems to work, but I'm sure something is broken by the odd state. $ ifconfig eth0 eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:15:5d:43:c5:1e inet addr:10.215.48.61 Bcast:10.215.49.255 Mask:255.255.254.0 inet6 addr: fe80::215:5dff:fe43:c51e/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:16218 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:14676 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:4162337 (4.1 MB) TX bytes:4972499 (4.9 MB) $ sudo ifdown eth0 ifdown: interface eth0 not configured $ grep "^[^#]" /etc/network/interfaces auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp $ ps axw | grep dhc 49213 pts/2 S+ 0:00 grep dhc $ for f in /var/log/upstart/network*; do echo === $f ===; ls -l $f; sudo cat $f; done === /var/log/upstart/networking.log === -rw-r----- 1 root root 511 Jun 10 12:33 /var/log/upstart/networking.log Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client 4.2.4 Copyright 2004-2012 Internet Systems Consortium.
