Ok so this is still FUBAR but then on a higher level.
The upgrade failed miserably see the attached file. I was able to ssh into the machine after the upgrade. ran dpkg --reconfigure -a as suggested see below then I tried to reboot. which was a big mistake. when I try to reconnect to the remote machine ssh: connect to host remotemachine port 22: No route to host This is terrible. ssh should be like the first thing started always. even grub should have some kind of ssh feature so if the grub menu shows one could fix that remotely. Now I have a unusable machine and have to go physically to the location to try and reinstall everything by hand. ============================== sudo shutdown --reboot 1 Failed to set wall message, ignoring: Method "SetWallMessage" with signature "sb" on interface "org.freedesktop.login1.Manager" doesn't exist Failed to call ScheduleShutdown in logind, proceeding with immediate shutdown: Method "ScheduleShutdown" with signature "st" on interface "org.freedesktop.login1.Manager" doesn't exist Failed to start reboot.target: Failed to setup environment correctly See system logs and 'systemctl status reboot.target' for details. ==================================================================== ===================================== It found too many errors to continue Errors found when configuring: libvlc5 libnss-winbind:amd64 ppp network-manager-pptp cups cups-daemon cups-core-drivers libpam-winbind:amd64 smbclient udev gnome-bluetooth libwayland-egl1-mesa:amd64 samba vlc-plugin-notify samba-common-bin bluez indicator-bluetooth network-manager-pptp-gnome hplip pulseaudio mountall unity-control-center printer-driver-hpcups libcogl20:amd64 initramfs-tools-core printer-driver-postscript-hp lvm2 libtotem0:amd64 libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37:amd64 libcheese-gtk25:amd64 libcanberra-pulse:amd64 libsolid4 initramfs-tools udisks2 upower xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse gnome-control-center libgtk-3-0:amd64 xserver-xorg-core gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad:amd64 winbind xserver-xorg-video-radeon libpeas-1.0-0:amd64 plymouth xserver-xorg libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0:amd64 bamfdaemon xfce4-power-manager gnome-system-monitor network-manager kdelibs5-plugins Stopped configuring too many errors =================================== ** Attachment added: "The upgrade file from Trust to Xenial from Landscape" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/landscape-client/+bug/1670291/+attachment/5206437/+files/Upgrade_Trusty-Xenial.result.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670291 Title: Landscape: Upgrade 14.04.5 to 16.04.2 fails unable to reboot Status in landscape-client package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in landscape-client source package in Xenial: Confirmed Status in systemd source package in Xenial: Fix Released Status in landscape-client source package in Bionic: New Status in systemd source package in Bionic: In Progress Status in landscape-client source package in Cosmic: Fix Committed Status in systemd source package in Cosmic: Fix Released Bug description: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/10061 [Impact] * When logind is not available, shutdown command fails to schedule a shutdown, and despite its intentions to immediately shutdown, does not do so. [Test Case] sudo systemctl mask systemd-logind.service sudo systemctl stop systemd-logind.service shutdown +1 The expectation is that system goes to shutdown. It is buggy if the system remains up - i.e. command returns to shell with exit code 1. [Regression Potential] * It is a corner case to run against systemd-shim logind / or logind not otherwise available. The function still performs a clean-shutdown, and should not cause loss of work. [Other Info] * Original bug report, running against systemd-shim/systemd-service post trusty->xenial upgrade, pre-reboot. Used Landscape (Paid Canonical Subscription) to upgrade one of my machines. Landscape only shows "In Progress" for more than 8 hours now and asked for a reboot of the machine in a second alert. In the reboot attempt I get the message: ========================= Failed to set wall message, ignoring: Method "SetWallMessage" with signature "sb" on interface "org.freedesktop.login1.Manager" doesn't exist Failed to call ScheduleShutdown in logind, proceeding with immediate shutdown: Method "ScheduleShutdown" with signature "st" on interface "org.freedesktop.login1.Manager" doesn't exist ========================= Steps to reproduce: * Fully updated 14.04.5 machine * Open Landscape * Choose the machine * Choose Packages * This computer can be upgraded to a newer release * Apply * Wait 2 hours * Alert comes in a seperate Landscape message Machine is ready for reboot * Choose Info...
