This issue also affects mysql package. $ sudo service mysql restart stop: unknown job: mysql start: unknown job: mysql
In other words, both mysql and ssh cannot be restarted. I have recently upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04, then this bug started affecting mysql and ssh. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to upstart in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1367214 Title: Newly installed openssh-server and upstart: status: Unknown job: ssh Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Just after installing openssh-server, there is no ssh service in the initctl's list. Consequently, the SSH server cannot be started: # initctl start ssh initctl: Unknown job: ssh # dpkg -l | grep ssh ii openssh-client 1:6.6p1-2ubuntu2 i386 secure shell (SSH) client, for secure access to remote machines ii openssh-server 1:6.6p1-2ubuntu2 i386 secure shell (SSH) server, for secure access from remote machines # cat /etc/lsb-release DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=14.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=trusty DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS" # initctl reload-configuration # initctl list | grep ssh ssh-agent start/running # ps axuw | grep ssh ivoras 1578 0.0 0.0 4216 200 ?

Running "service ssh restart" results in: # service ssh restart stop: Unknown job: ssh start: Unknown job: ssh After rebooting the machine, sshd is started (!), but still not visible in "initctl list" (!!) and running /etc/init.d/ssh still doesn't do anything (!!!), as well as the "service" command returning the same "Unknown job: ssh" error. Exactly the same problem happens with the php5-fpm service. I've also installed nginx and while it can be controlled by using /etc/init.d/nginx , it is not visible in "initctl list". The question is - how do I control the services in Ubuntu 14.04? This is a fresh install, the ssh service was the first service installed.
