[Bug 1385709] Re: network-manager service doesn't start at boot time

 

Yep. Likewise. Uninstalled sendmail on Ubuntu 14.04. Upgraded to 14.10.
Subsequently had "waiting for network configuration" during boot, and no
network conection and no network manager after boot. Reinstalled
sendmail, restarted, and then purged the newly installed sendmail. Now
everything seems to be working as normal.

Title:
  network-manager service doesn't start at boot time

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in sendmail package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I just completed the upgrade from Kubuntu 14.04 to 14.10. Haven't had
  any network trouble before the upgrade. After the upgrade, the
  network-manager service does not start when the computer boots up -
  the Kubuntu splash screen says 'waiting for network configuration',
  then 'waiting another 60 seconds for network configuration' (or
  something like that), then finally boots up without a network
  connection. Also the Network Management tray icon tooltip says that
  the network-manager service is not running. However if I then manually
  open the terminal and run 'sudo service network-manager start', then
  it starts ok and the network connects within a few seconds and
  everything works ok until the next reboot. I'm on a desktop PC with a
  wired LAN connection and no wifi adapter. network-manager version is
  0.9.8.8-0ubuntu28.
