Dear Folks, I am running Fedora 15 on a 4-core x86_64 machine which received a power surge recently, and spontaneously rebooted. Strange behaviour followed, so I touched /forcefsck and /.autorelabel on separate occasions, rebooting each time. I observe the following behaviour regardless of whether I run setenforce 0 or setenforce 1.
1. Graphical boot does not complete; the Nagios server starts, but systemd announced that cups had failed, and gdm did not start up. 2. I cannot log in on the text consoles; I can type in the username, but no prompt appears for the password. 3. I can log in via ssh as either myself or as root. 4. Attempts to use su fail, but can be interrupted. 5. Attempts to use sudo hang, and require that I kill the process 6. Many attempts to use systemctl (for example, by itself to list the state of all the state of all services) result in a message after a time out, complaining about dbus timing out. 7. A cupsd and a dbus process are both present, but apparently not responding. # systemctl kill cups.service Failed to get D-Bus connection: Failed to authenticate in time. # systemctl Failed to get D-Bus connection: Failed to authenticate in time. I have experience with debugging the old /etc/init.d/script approach, but I am not sure how to proceed with this problem: I am also hampered by insufficient knowledge of dbus. This is beyond my previous experience, and would really appreciate some pointers on how to proceed. I am reading Lennart Poettering's "systemd for Administrators" now to try to understand how this all works. I have posted to [email protected], but this list seems to be more appropriate. -- Nick Urbanik http://nicku.org [email protected] GPG: 7FFA CDC7 5A77 0558 DC7A 790A 16DF EC5B BB9D 2C24 ID: BB9D2C24 _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
