Hello, The fix for this problem seems to be a one line change in /lib/systemd/system/networking.service:
Add "RemainAfterExit=yes" in the [Services] section of this file. After adding this line, do a systemctl daemon-reload Please try out this one line change. We should have an updated package next week. (You've likely checked the following....but just in case....) Check to make sure that NetworkManager is stopped and disabled and that networking is started and enabled. systemctl status NetworkManager systemctl stop NetworkManager systemctl disable NetworkManager # check it to make sure systemctl -l status NetworkManager # check/start networking because that is what ifupdown2 expects systemctl -l status networking systemctl start networking systemctl enable networking # now check the output again. systemctl -l status networking If you still have issues after rebooting, please include the following before you manually "ifup -a": journalctl -l | grep network ip addr show systemctl -l status networking cat /etc/network/interfaces dpkg -l | grep ifupdown Thanks, Sam On Thu, 28 Jan 2016 21:43:52 +0100 Thomas Mayer <elvett.se...@gmx.net> wrote: > Package: ifupdown2 > Version: 1.0~git20151029-1 > Severity: important > > Dear Maintainer, > > after migration from ifupdown to ifupdown2, network connections are not > available automatically after startup. > > ifconfig returns nothing, I have to manually execute ifup -a as root for > network to come up. > > > > -- System Information: > Debian Release: stretch/sid > APT prefers testing > APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (701, 'stable'), (700, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable-updates') > Architecture: i386 (x86_64) > > Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) > Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) > Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash > Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) > > Versions of packages ifupdown2 depends on: > ii init-system-helpers 1.24 > ii python-argcomplete 0.8.1-1 > ii python-ipaddr 2.1.11-2 > pn python:any <none> > > ifupdown2 recommends no packages. > > Versions of packages ifupdown2 suggests: > pn python-gvgen <none> > pn python-mako <none> > > -- no debconf information > > -- *Sam Tannous*
