1566894816 M * yan6 the guest is probably using systemd now after upgrade 1566894832 M * yan6 guest distro is debian buster 1566894900 M * yan6 init directory is empty 1566895024 M * Guy- I don't think systemd will work in a vserver guest 1566895037 M * Guy- you'd have to replace it with something else 1566895052 M * Guy- (I use runit, fwiw) 1566895066 M * Guy- (runit works great with initstyle plain in vserver) 1566895135 M * Guy- I know Debian has made it harder to use anything other than systemd, but moving from Debian to Devuan is quite painless (it's little more than adjusting sources.list and installing the devuan keyring), and non-systemd init systems are first class citizens in Devuan 1566895168 Q * _are_ Remote host closed the connection 1566895178 J * _are_ ~quassel@2a01:238:4325:ca00:f065:c93c:f967:9285 1566895557 M * yan6 ouch so I cannot get this guest running anymore ? 1566895949 M * Guy- yes you can, you just need to replace its systemd with something else :) 1566896100 M * Guy- probably systemd is not the raison d'etre for the entire guest; there is nothing stopping you from running the actual services in the guest (well, nothing except systemd) 1566896173 M * Guy- as a minimum, you could write a script that brings up your services without using systemd mechanisms, and call it from cmd.start 1566896193 M * Guy- not ideal, but the guest would run and its services would work 1566896207 M * Guy- stopping it would need a separate custom script 1566896239 M * yan6 yes, well i think in previous release "stretch" I still used init.d 1566896254 M * yan6 but maybe in buster it got replaced 1566896262 M * yan6 I mean I'd like to fix it 1566896267 M * yan6 I can't start it now 1566896283 M * Guy- there are several ways 1566896292 M * yan6 I can continue to use init.d 1566896293 M * Guy- you could just chroot into it and fix it 1566896305 M * Guy- there is no need to start the vserver as such 1566896322 M * yan6 So, what do I need to do ? 1566896328 M * Guy- or you could add "persistent" to its flags, put "/bin/true" in cmd.start, and then start it 1566896337 M * yan6 yes, I will try with perisstent 1566896341 M * Guy- the guest will be up, you'll be able to use vserver enter, but it will run no processes 1566896367 M * yan6 ouch 1566896377 M * Guy- what's wrong? 1566896389 M * yan6 ok let's try with persistent 1566896399 M * yan6 where do i enter cmd.start which file ? 1566896435 M * Guy- I think "persistent" goes into /etc/vservers/node1/flags 1566896454 M * Guy- and /bin/true goes into /etc/vservers/node1/apps/init/cmd.start 1566896541 M * yan6 ok 1566896545 M * yan6 I have done this 1566896551 M * yan6 now I can try adn start it ? 1566896557 M * Guy- yes 1566896589 M * yan6 RTNETLINK answers: File exists 1566896590 M * yan6 RTNETLINK answers: File exists 1566896596 M * yan6 this is the output 1566896615 M * yan6 nothing in vserver-stat 1566896641 M * yan6 oh, maybe network interfaces names got changed during upgrade 1566896671 M * yan6 but it's probably unrelated, because interfaces get delegated from host 1566896890 M * Guy- vserver-stat may not show it because it has no processes 1566896894 M * Guy- doesn't vserver enter work? 1566897643 M * yan6 yes, it works 1566897652 M * yan6 What do I do now ? 1566898626 M * yan6 I would prefer to keep Debian instead of upgrading to Devuan 1566899125 M * Guy- well, I suppose you remove systemd and install sysvinit 1566899134 M * yan6 Yes 1566899148 M * yan6 I think Devuan still uses jessie, which is 2 releases behind Debian 1566899188 M * Guy- no, devuan ascii is based on stretch 1566899206 M * Guy- tbh I never cared, I just use Devuan ceres, which is always new 1566899220 M * yan6 http://paste.debian.net/plainh/10c4ec5b 1566899279 M * Guy- can't you remove the systemd package? 1566899293 M * yan6 I don't know if removing systemd breaks debian buster 1566899308 M * Guy- any more than it is already broken? :) 1566899314 M * yan6 well its not broken 1566899320 M * yan6 the upgrade went through 1566899329 M * Guy- as far as you're concerned it's broken, because it won't start 1566899347 M * Guy- you should be able to remove the systemd package, and apt should be able to sort that out 1566899352 M * yan6 ok lets see 1566899385 M * yan6 Removing systemd (241-5) ... 1566899385 M * yan6 Processing triggers for dbus (1.12.16-1) ... 1566899385 M * yan6 Processing triggers for man-db (2.8.5-2) ... 1566899389 M * yan6 ok it seems its done 1566899414 M * Guy- do you have a /sbin/init?
