Hello Olivier, or anyone else affected, Accepted squid3 into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/squid3/3.5.12-1ubuntu7.14 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed- xenial to verification-done-xenial. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification- failed-xenial. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance for helping! N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days. ** Changed in: squid3 (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-xenial -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to dnsmasq in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1761096 Title: dnsmasq starts with error on Ubuntu Xenial amd64 when squid installed Status in dnsmasq package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in squid package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in squid3 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in dnsmasq source package in Xenial: Invalid Status in squid source package in Xenial: Invalid Status in squid3 source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Status in dnsmasq source package in Bionic: Invalid Status in squid source package in Bionic: Invalid Status in squid3 source package in Bionic: Incomplete Bug description: [Impact] When using dnsmasq along with squid on Ubuntu Xenial, the user will experience a deadlock while performing on every second execution of the "systemctl start dnsmasq.service" command. The deadlock will be caused by an attempt to invoke, by nss-lookup.target, a "systemctl reload squid.service", which will itself try to start the nss- lookup.target, which will be waiting on squid, therefore eventually leading to a timeout. The underlying cause of this deadlock is related to how systemd used to handle dependencies between multiple jobs being started in the same transaction. [Test Case] One can reproduce the issue on a Xenial container: $ lxc launch ubuntu-daily:xenial squid-bug1761096 $ lxc shell squid-bug1761096 # apt update # apt install squid dnsmasq -y It is quite possible that during "apt install" the bug will manifest, and dnsmasq will fail to start due to a timeout. The user might see a message like: Job for dnsmasq.service failed because a timeout was exceeded. See "systemctl status dnsmasq.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details. If the bug doesn't manifest itself during installation, the following commands in sequence should trigger it: # systemctl restart dnsmasq.service # systemctl restart dnsmasq.service [Regression Potential] This change only touches the mechanism by which squid has its configuration reloaded in case of a DNS resolver change. Because "systemctl reload --no-block" returns practically immediately, if squid's configuration file is invalid the user won't see any notifications. However, this behaviour is already present currently, because "systemctl reload squid" invokes "/etc/init.d/squid reload"; the user has to check "journalctl -u squid.service" if she wants to verify whether there were any failures during the reload. Other than that, and because systemctl will offload the service to the SysV script as usual (in the case of squid), I don't foresee any potential regressions. [Original Description] Setup to reproduce: Ubuntu Xenial amd64 net install iso from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/installer- amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso Install system with mostly defaults + LVM + OpenSSH server Note that this bug applies to both DHCP and static IP+DNS network configurations Once server rebooted and is available, log in and install dnsmasq + squid: apt-get update && apt-get install squid dnsmasq output of this can be found at https://pastebin.com/9Atuipju journalctl -xe output at https://pastebin.com/uLhfM4jN Furthermore at this point I can run alternating errors root@ubuntu-min:~# date ; service dnsmasq start ; date Wed Apr 4 09:18:07 CEST 2018 Wed Apr 4 09:18:07 CEST 2018 root@ubuntu-min:~# date ; service dnsmasq stop ; date Wed Apr 4 09:18:39 CEST 2018 Wed Apr 4 09:18:39 CEST 2018 root@ubuntu-min:~# date ; service dnsmasq start ; date Wed Apr 4 09:19:10 CEST 2018 Job for dnsmasq.service failed because a timeout was exceeded.
