Bug 322881 – net-im/prosody fails to start on gentoo stable, but is fine on gentoo testing

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO

[Description Metin Akat 2010-06-05 17:08:21 UTC]

I installed prosody on my server (which is stable gentoo), and it fails to start when using the init script. If I manually start the server by prosodyctl start, all is fine.
Besides, I tried installing prosody on my laptop (gentoo testing) and the init script has no problems starting prosody.
Here is the emerge --info of both systems:

I don't know what other information to include, but I would gladly do so if I'm told what to.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

[Comment 1 matt 2010-06-05 17:25:10 UTC]

could be http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=286191

[Comment 2 Michael Weber (RETIRED) 2010-06-07 03:32:05 UTC]

Hello Metin,

can you please comment the versions of net-im/prosody you use? And the output of the `/etc/init.d/.. start` command if any?

Do you see any relation to bug 286191?

Thanks, Michael

[Comment 3 Metin Akat 2010-06-07 05:54:10 UTC]

Hi Michael,
I'm using prosody 0.6.2
When I start the init script, it outputs the normal "starting service" message, but instead [OK] in the right, it displays [!!]. Nothing else is written on the screen.

[Comment 4 Metin Akat 2010-06-07 05:56:00 UTC]

(In reply to comment #2)
> Do you see any relation to bug 286191?

I think yes.

[Comment 5 Dirkjan Ochtman (RETIRED) 2010-06-07 08:42:19 UTC]

Huh, what has that bug got to do with anything? prosody nor prosodyctl are written in Python, so I don't see how that could affect this issue.

[Comment 6 Dirkjan Ochtman (RETIRED) 2010-06-07 08:44:53 UTC]

Also, can you paste the output of emerge -pv lua luasocket luasec luaexpat luafilesystem libidn openssl on both boxes?

[Comment 7 Metin Akat 2010-06-07 08:50:23 UTC]

I'm sorry, I upgraded the stable box to testing, so it won't be possible.
But here is what it outputs on testing:

$ emerge -pv emerge -pv lua luasocket luasec luaexpat luafilesystem libidn openssl
                                                                                                                   
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Sorry, I issued the wrong command. Here is the real one:


$ emerge -pv lua luasocket luasec luaexpat luafilesystem libidn openssl

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

[Comment 9 Dirkjan Ochtman (RETIRED) 2010-07-12 08:10:50 UTC]

So basically you can't reproduce it, right?

[Comment 10 Metin Akat 2010-07-12 08:12:01 UTC]

Yeah, because I no more have the failing machine.

[Comment 11 Dirkjan Ochtman (RETIRED) 2010-07-12 08:15:31 UTC]

Okay, closing this for now.
