Package: nfs-common
Version: 1:1.2.8-9
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I am running Debian stretch. When nfs-common is loaded on booting,
rpcbind.service isn't loaded. This causes the following statements in the
init script to exit:
if [ -x /usr/sbin/rpcinfo ]; then
/usr/sbin/rpcinfo -p >/dev/null 2>&1
RET=$?
if [ $RET != 0 ]; then
echo
log_warning_msg "Not starting: portmapper is not running"
exit 0
fi
When calling systemctl restart nfs-common.service in a running system,
it causes rpcbind.service to be loaded and thus the init script
continues to run.
Kind regards,
Benedikt Wildenhain
P.S.: I did not investigate how to get rpcbind running, as I only use
NFSv4 and explicitly setting NEED_STATD=no in /etc/default/nfs-common
was enough to get NFSv4 working.
