[Bug 1003845] Re: Invisible symbols in sssd upstart config causes sssd to not start if /bin/sh is a link to /bin/bash
This bug was fixed in the package sssd - 1.8.6-0ubuntu0.2
---------------
sssd (1.8.6-0ubuntu0.2) precise-proposed; urgency=low
* rules: Really install the new pam-auth-update file for password
changes. (LP: #1086272)
* rules: Pass --datadir, so the path in autogenerated python files is
correctly substituted. (LP: #1079938)
** Changed in: sssd (Ubuntu Precise)
Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released

Title:
Invisible symbols in sssd upstart config causes sssd to not start if
/bin/sh is a link to /bin/bash
Status in “sssd” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in “sssd” source package in Precise:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
prevents the daemon from starting when /bin/sh is bash
[Test case]
change /bin/sh to point to bash, run 'start sssd'
[Regression potential]
small, it's an obvious packaging bug
--
This problem appeared when I changed /bin/sh link to /bin/bash.
Somehow dash tolerates this bug described below.
When trying to start sssd I've got:
root@ubuntu-precise:~# start sssd
start: Job failed to start
The only trace in syslog was:
May 24 11:11:59 ubuntu-precise kernel: [66576.880595] init: sssd pre-
start process (9782) terminated with status 2
I've took a look on /etc/init/sssd.conf and everything looks ok, but
after some play I make it to start, and this is the difference to the
original:
root@ubuntu-precise:/etc/init# diff sssd.conf sssd.conf.orig
19c19
< test -f /etc/sssd/sssd.conf || { stop; exit 0; }
---
> test -f /etc/sssd/sssd.conf || { stop; exit 0; }
This looks bizzare for me, so I tried that:
root@ubuntu-precise:/etc/init# cat -A sssd.conf|grep test
^Itest -f /etc/sssd/sssd.conf || { stop; exit 0; }$
root@ubuntu-precise:/etc/init# cat -A sssd.conf.orig|grep test
^Itest -f /etc/sssd/sssd.conf ||M-BM- { stop; exit 0; }$
root@ubuntu-precise:/etc/init#
I have no idea what does "M-BM-" stand for, but I'm sure this is not
how it should be.
