You have been subscribed to a public bug: For the default case where a storage node only contains one server for each type (object, account, container), there does not have to be a /etc/swift/<type>-server/ directory with any files in it.
In this case, the server is configured with a single file: /etc/swift/<type>-server.conf The upstart scripts provided in the trunk ppa for swift: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/swift-core/trunk/ubuntu oneiric main will not start any of the server services unless files exist in these folders ... if [ $(find /etc/swift/object-server/ -type f 2>/dev/null | wc -l) -gt 0 ]; then exec /usr/bin/swift-init object-server start ... This means that the services cannot be started with the default configuration ** Affects: swift (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- swift service scripts will not start unless /etc/swift/*-server/* exists https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/931893 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
