[Bug 522509] Re: [FFE] tftpd-hpa doesn't start on boot

[AllenS]

Hi

I have the same problem with Precise (tftpd-hpa version 5.2-1ubuntu1).
It seems exactly the same as #23 above.

status tftpd-hpa saying running when it definately isn't.

Diego, I don't really understand the 'change the condition' stuff you
mention. Would you be able to explain in reasonably simple terms how to
work round this problem. I rely on tftpd for routers to back up configs.
Thanks!

dmesg | grep tftpf
[   29.086131] init: tftpd-hpa main process (1181) terminated with status 66
[   29.086151] init: tftpd-hpa main process ended, respawning

 grep tftpd /var/log/syslog
May  7 17:46:04 wombat in.tftpd[1181]: cannot resolve local IPv4 bind address: 0.0.0.0, Name or service not known
May  7 17:46:04 wombat kernel: [   29.086131] init: tftpd-hpa main process (1181) terminated with status 66

Please let me know if you need more info.

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: tftp-hpa

  tftpd-hpa version: 5.0-11ubuntu1

  tftpd-hpa doesn't start on boot for me:
  syslog.1:Feb 16 08:26:43 alkis in.tftpd[1399]: cannot resolve local IPv4 bind address: 0.0.0.0, Name or service not known

  But if I put a "sleep 30" on top of /etc/init.d/tftpd-hpa, then it does start.
  Maybe the network isn't ready when the script runs?
  Maybe it'd be better if tftpd-hpa was upstartified?

  I didn't change any of my settings, they're the defaults:
  # /etc/default/tftpd-hpa

  TFTP_USERNAME="tftp"
  TFTP_DIRECTORY="/var/lib/tftpboot"
  TFTP_ADDRESS="0.0.0.0:69"
  TFTP_OPTIONS="--secure"
