[Bug 1357252] Re: "Application failed to start." during autopilot tests after the newest ubuntu-app-launch landing

 

Currently, there is a minor bug whereby if upstart is running in debug
mode and trying to start a job that uses the 'cgroup' stanza will dump
cgroup debug details into the jobs log [1].

This could be useful here though since it should be possible to either
boot the session init in debug mode and see what turns up in
~/.cache/upstart/*.log. I've attached a patch to enable debug mode at
session init startup but you can always enable at any time using
'initctl log-priority debug'.

It would also be worth enabling debug mode for cgmanager by tweaking
/etc/init/cgmanager.conf and setting 'cgmanager_opts="--debug"' in that
file as shown (or simply creating /etc/init/cgmanager.override
containing 'env cgmanager_opts="--debug"'.

Bug description:
  After the ubuntu-app-launch landing in #188
  (http://people.canonical.com/~ogra/touch-image-stats/188.changes), UI
  Toolkit autopilot tests have started failing, see
  http://ci.ubuntu.com/smokeng/utopic/touch/mako/190:20140815:20140811.1/9676/ubuntuuitoolkit/
  and the #188 results too. It's different tests each time, but a bit
  above 10 of them tend to fail on each full run.

  Reproducable locally, where I got 11 such failures.
