[Bug 1041234] Re: Upgrade of resolvconf from 1.63ubuntu* to 1.63ubuntu15 fails: start: Job failed to start

[progre55]

Yep, here, repeated all the steps, and get the "action 'start' failed"
error with return 1

====== BEGIN ======

# status resolvconf 
resolvconf start/running

# stop resolvconf 
resolvconf stop/waiting

# invoke-rc.d resolvconf start
Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
utility, e.g. service resolvconf start

Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an
Upstart job, you may also use the start(8) utility, e.g. start resolvconf
resolvconf start/running

# status resolvconf 
resolvconf start/running

# invoke-rc.d resolvconf start
Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8)
utility, e.g. service resolvconf start

Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an

start: Job is already running: resolvconf
invoke-rc.d: initscript resolvconf, action "start" failed.

# echo $?
1

# status resolvconf 
resolvconf start/running

====== END ======

Let me know if you want me to provide any configs or logs.
By the way, I tried upgrading on a different machine with the same specs (both amazon ec2 instances, 64bit ubuntu 12.04), and get the same error.

Title:
  Upgrade of resolvconf from 1.63ubuntu* to 1.63ubuntu15 fails: start:
  Job failed to start

Status in “resolvconf” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I can see that the other bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/resolvconf/+bug/929552) has expired, and it was actually addressing a different version.
  Today I tried applying the pending upgrades on my amazon ec2 based ubuntu 12.04 64-bit server, and got the following error:

  Setting up resolvconf (1.63ubuntu15) ...
  resolvconf start/running
  Processing triggers for resolvconf ...
  start: Job is already running: resolvconf
  invoke-rc.d: initscript resolvconf, action "start" failed.
  dpkg: error processing resolvconf (--configure):
   subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   resolvconf
  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

  Please tell me what more information I could provide.
