Public bug reported: Hello,
in the boot script of slurm-llnl we find this piece: STARTERRORMSG="$(start-stop-daemon --start --oknodo \ --exec "$SBINDIR/$1" -- $2 2>&1)" STATUS=$? log_end_msg $STATUS if [ "$STARTERRORMSG" != "" ] ; then echo $STARTERRORMSG fi and this: STOPERRORMSG="$(start-stop-daemon --oknodo --stop -s TERM \ --exec "$SBINDIR/$1" 2>&1)" STATUS=$? log_end_msg $STATUS if [ "$STOPERRORMSG" != "" ] ; then echo $STOPERRORMSG fi effectively suppressing the stand error messages (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stderr#Standard_error_.28stderr.29). Please do echo error messages to stderr like this: echo $STARTERRORMSG >&2 and echo $STOPERRORMSG >&2 thanks ** Affects: slurm-llnl (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1027779 Title: stderr of boot script is suppressed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/slurm-llnl/+bug/1027779/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
