Ubuntu :: Mythbackend Not Starting On Boot And Cannot Shut Down
Nov 20, 2010
I've just renamed my Mythbuntu 9.04 machine which was running a frontend and master backend. It's now a frontend and slave backend with a different machine name. All is working in that the connection between slave and master backend functions without problems. However, the mythbackend on the slave will not start on boot - I have to start it manually from the terminal. In addition, the power button on the machine will not shutdown the machine any more - I can only shut it down from the terminal.

As the title states.
Code:
# /etc/init.d/mysql status
Checking for service MySQL: unused
# /etc/init.d/mythbackend status
Checking for service MythTV backend unused

Offlate I installed F11 i586 on my laptop. F11 shares the hard disk with Vista Home Premium 32-bit. The problem is that when running F11 (or even Ubuntu), my system shut off suddenly(not a normal OS shut down, but a sudden power off without any warning). This could have been a hardware trouble(heating) but it doesn't happen with Vista.
Machine specifications:
Maker: Toshiba
Model: Satellite L305D-S5881
AMD Turion X2 Dual Core Mobile Processor RM-70
3072 MB 800 MHz SDRAM
I don't want to open up my machine unnecessarily, if it isn't a hardware issue.
I am not sure how to verify the bit length of the machine and the OS and does it create a compatibility issue ?
Your advise would be highly appreciated.

I've built several computers and installed Ubuntu on each one, and I've never had problems until my latest build. Here are the problems:The computer requires acpi=off to boot, and it won't boot with acpi=ht. I've searched for this, and there's a widely reproduced acpi troubleshooting guide that says that this means that there's something wrong with the acpi tables themselves, but I haven't found any fixes.If I go ahead and use acpi=off, then the computer works fine, but it hangs on shutdown. I've searched for this too, and the consensus seems to be to remove acpi=off from the boot options. This, of course, is not an option for me.

I've installed Ubuntu 9.10 approx 1 week ago and it's been fine. Last night, Ubuntu froze while I was running several programs. I wasn't sure how to pull up any type of 'task manager' and the mouse didn't move so after several minutes I was forced to hard reboot the computer. Grub starts and allows me to select Ubuntu but won't get past the log-in screen (allows me to log-in but freezes immediately after hitting enter). I started the recovery mode and the errors show what I believe to be sector errors (?)Do I need to run a 'chkdsk' from Windows or re-install Ubuntu? If deleting/un-installing Ubuntu (through Wubi) is necessary, is this a problem directly related to Wubi (i.e. is a clean install on a seperate partition better than installing through Wubi)?

I have Fedora (12 plus some rawhide, but mostly 12 because I am not up to date) with the Nouveau driver. I tried to switch to the solar plymouth theme, but I only see the ASCII progress bar at boot. But when I shut down, it work nicely. (I have updated to initrd and menu.lst)

After installing 11.04, I have enabled the Nvidia proprietary drivers and I see this (picture of problem is attached) at startup and shutdown. About nine out of 10 times, I cannot get to the log in screen (even in recovery mode); however, on the tenth try, everything works properly and I can even play games, ex. Braid and World of Goo. I get about 3700 fps running glxgears.
I have run nvidia-settings and dpkg and various other things in an attempt to get it sorted out. Additional Drivers says that the "driver is activated but not currently in use." I'm not sure why that is.

I'm using opensuse 11.2 and a week or so ago it suddenly stopped shutting down the computer, or rebooting. It shuts the screen down and that seems to be it, so I have ti switch it off. However a day or so later it began to reboot when asked, but still won't shut down. I'm dual booting it with Unbuntu 9.04 using grub2, but it's been that way for many months without problems.

I am facing a problem with my AT91SAM9260 customized board. Board is almost same as the evaluation kit.
I could download the binaries ( Bootstrap-v1.16, u-boot-1.3.4, linux kernel 2.6.20) successfully to the DATAFLASH/NANDFlash in my board by using atmel SAM-BA tool with usb/serialport/jlink.
Here I describe the problem.
When I power up the board, boot strap is not jumping to U-boot location, in the normal boot sequence and board stuck with bootstrap.
But when I disconnect/connect the JTAG USB cable ( provided with SAM-BA ICE) , it's jumping to u-boot location and booting the board properly. I'm getting the same error in NAND FLASH also.
I have tried one more test case.I copied bootstrap binary at the flash location, [location which is specified for u-boot binary] instead of U-boot.bin (location: 0x8400 in dataflash), I got continous bootstrap debug messages in my console. [ So can I conclude SDRAM doesn't have any problem? ]
Bootstrap code or U-boot code ?

I recently switched from fedora 14 to 15. Today my computer suddenly shut down during an update, as I thought it overheated I decided to clean the cooling system and reapply thermal paste. However, now the system won't boot anymore ("kernel panic - not syncing : VFS: unable to mount root FS on unknown-block").
I would like to either solve this booting problem, or mount the fedora 15 filesystem and recover some files. Whichever is easier.
I have another drive with fedora 14 (antec below) which boots fine:

I can't get cups to auto-start at boot time. Running sudo cupsd manually works fine, but I don't want to have to do that every session.This seems to be affecting lots of folks. This thread claims that bug #444597 in launchpad has a solution, but I must be too stupid to see it, and the thread is closed so I can't post there.
All my rc and init files seem fine, bootsplash is off, and, of course, there are no useful boot error logs in Karmic.

I'm having a problem getting my MPD service to start during boot. This started a week or so ago. It's no big deal, just a pain. It start fine when I run the script in a terminal. I changed the start priority with update-rc.d. I occasionally get a segfault message in my syslog and messages log. Not sure what it means.

I lost power to my ubuntu box earlier today, so it didn't shut down properly. I'm now trying to start it but it keeps getting stuck at 'Starting Up' for over an hour. I've tried pressing escape to boot a different version or into recovery mode. The only difference I get is when loading a recovery mode it just puts up a flashing underscore instead of 'starting up . . .' - it still hangs there. This is a small box without a optical drive which is why I haven't tried a live CD.
I'm not really familiar with linux or boot issues.

However, many of those threads show that adding two lines to the file "/etc/network/interfaces" should solve the problem. I checked on my PC and those two lines are already there.. but CUPS still doesn't start properly on boot up...

Since a few hours I can't seem to get GNOME working. Whenever I boot my computer, I just get tty1 wanting me to log in. That works, but then I just get tty1 with a terminal... In tty7 I can see the startup checks which end with "* Checking battery state... [OK]".

Something happened to my ubuntu 10.4 - I can't see my desktop after boot. As a matter of fact, when I boot I see a message saying: Continue to wait; or press S to skip mounting, or M for manual recovery. I left it like that over night, this morning I found the logon box, typed my password and I got to an empty desktop.
I did a Ctrl-Alt-F1 and logged on there, I am looking at /etc.fstab and I see the first lines like this:
proc /proc proc nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0
# / was on /dev/sda3 during installation UUID=3538bcd0d-...
ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
I guess something is wrong right from the start, some portion of the file system is not recognized anymore (or is in the wrong place) ...

How would I make sure cron is running every time my server is turned on? I want to make cron jobs, but I need to know that it is running when the server boots. Also, I used a program at some point that was terminal based and it showed be what programs ran when the server booted up. It allowed me to check a box and select which programs I could run at boot. If someone could tell me this program,

Since I have not gotten anything on the "General Help" I am posting this here: When a Ubuntu 10.10 I have starts up apache2, MySQL and postfix start properly but bind9 doesn't. Once booted is I run 'sudo /etc/init.d/bind9 start' it starts. The only thing odd on this system is I have a "inet6 v4tunnel" interface defined in my /etc/network/interfaces. From booting in the syslog there is:
Code:
/var/log/syslog:Feb 28 19:02:42 ubuntu named[1029]: starting BIND 9.7.1-P2 -u bind -d 9
/var/log/syslog:Feb 28 19:02:42 ubuntu named[1029]: built with '--prefix=/usr' '--mandir=/usr/share/man' '--infodir=/usr/share/info' '--sysconfdir=/etc/bind'
[code]....
Even with the bind debug level at set at 90 I do not get any more in the logs that what I posted before. The lack of errors in the logs is giving me no idea where to start. I commented out the IPv6 tunnel interface and rebooted and still no help. bind still is not starting at boot. OK, it is not a permissions issue, I have changed the config and zone files to be owned by bind:bind, root:bind, root:root and bind:root and it has made no difference. Doing a fresh install on a Virtual Box VM and configure it in a similar manner bind9 starts normally. (I am almost to the point where I will rebuild the box)

Since my desktop (Ubuntu 10.4.1 for now) has no need for anyone trying to ssh into it, I want to prevent ssh from starting as a service when I boot up.
If I type: sudo update-rc.d -f ssh-agent remove
in terminal, will that stop the service for all boots (until I run: sudo update-rc.d ssh-agent defaults -- in terminal)?
I've already removed (unchecked) ssh agent key from my startup applications

I don't exactly when this started, but I hadn't booted my mythbuntu box for a while. When I boot it now, it hangs after grub at 'Starting Up...'. I was running 9.10 64bit, with 4GB Ram installed on an AMD64 3700+ ASUS A8N5X mobo. How can I resolve this? Can I modify boot options by hitting the Esc key before grub? What options should I use? I made no changes myself, it just happened on the next reboot. I hope that I won't have to burn a livecd. I only say that because the only machine that I have with a decent burner is my 9.10 box.

I just installed debian 8.0.0..I installed it without "desktop-environment" during tasksel, but instead installed it with "sudo apt-get install xorg gnome-core" atferwards.I want x-win to be present but I do not want it to start during boot.
Adding "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=text" to the grub config used to work but for this new debian it does not change anything. Yes, I did do update-grub2 after editing the grub file, and I also confirmed in /var/log/messages that "text" is present with the kernel command. "sudo update-rc.d gdm3 remove" also has no effect,what I do gnome starts at boot time.

I am running Ubuntu 9.10, and every time the computer starts, cups does not appear to be running. I have to run the following from the command line:
Code:
sudo /etc/init.d/cups start
After cups is started, printing works fine. Does anyone know how I can get cups to start on it's own when the computer boots?

I have a file server running samba 3.4.0. I just upgraded ubuntu to 9.10. The upgrade was unfortunately stopped in the middle, but I think I managed to complete it.The problem is that now samba will not work after a reboot. The daemons are running, but any attempt to connect from a windows machine fails (Windows 7: the network path was not found). Manually restarting the service fixes the problem, but I need a more stable solution!Interestingly, I can ssh to the machine, or rdp to a virtual machine running on it.The logs don't seem to report any error:
Code:
stefano@SERVER02:/var/log/samba$ tail log.smbd
[2010/03/14 04:02:11, 0] smbd/server.c:1068(main)

Also, I need to know what httpd is, and who the owner and groups using that might be on my system.

I recently installed FatRat on my headless system. I am having trouble starting the program on boot though. When I launch it using the -n switch for no gui, it uses the terminal window as a log file, which means I cannot put it in the bootup programs because the constant logging stops the next program in the list from starting.
Is there any way to launch fatrat without the gui, and letting it release the terminal for further commands after?
