3) What you expected to happen
4) What happened instead
Ubuntu server (running in OpenVZ VPS farm, thus the old kernel
version) has been up and running happily, until I performed apt-get
upgrade and rebooted the server. After reboot, I could not establish
SSH connection to server, port 22 connection was refused.
I opened a HTML console to my server instance and checked logs. From
the logs, it was shown, that SSH server could not start, as it did not
have the /var/run/sshd directory. After scrolling back the
/var/log/syslog, I noticed that there were lots of other /var/run
subdirectories, which were not created. Here is cut&paste from
/var/log/syslog, related to systemd-tmpfiles:

My first idea was, that for some reason, systemd-tmpfiles was not able
to create the /var directory properly, so I renamed
/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/var.conf to 0000var.conf, but it was no help. The
only difference was the first line on the above log, complaining about
duplicate line for path /var/log.
As I created this error using the "ubuntu-bug" command, I assume
necessary background information is automatically attached. I'll check
those and add more, if necessary.
