[Bug 998576] Re: Upstart scripts can't be started/stopped manually following upgrade to 12.04 from 10.04

 

We really do appreciate you opening this ticket to help improve
Mythbuntu, but it needs to be closed for a number of reasons. The
biggest one is that upstream has moved on to a new version and believes
this to be fixed. Could you please verify if this issue still exists in
the latest version?

Please do not let the closing of this ticket dissuade you from opening a
new ticket if this (or any other) problem occurs with the newer
versions.

Title:
  Upstart scripts can't be started/stopped manually following upgrade to
  12.04 from 10.04

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Starting / stopping a script is done as follow:
  $ sudo service mythtv-backend stop
  or
  $ sudo service mythtv-backend start

  following an upgrade from 10.04 to 12.04, this always return the error:
  /usr/bin/service: 123: exec: stop: not found

  $ ls -l /sbin/stop 
  lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Apr 27 01:26 /sbin/stop -> initctl

  $ sudo /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend stop
  Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
  utility, e.g. service mythtv-backend stop
  /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend: 54: /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend: initctl: not found

  it is possible to do it manually with:
  $ /sbin/stop mythtv-backend
