[Bug 1272788] Re: New upstart jobs are not detected in a P to T upgrade

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

The conclusion is incorrect =)
upstart ignore jobs with unknown stanzas.
php-fpm specifies a stanza which is not available / unknown to upstart in precise.
also precise upstart doesn't know how to perform a stateful re-exec, hence a reboot is required to get the new init.

If it is desired for the upstart job to work, before rebooting one of the following are possible solutions:
* maintainer scripts fallback to init.d script
* make upstart job precise compatible, e.g. remove "reload signal" stanza
* (possibly) ship reload signal stanza in the .override file (precise upstart will ignore override, trusty upstart will use it)

** Changed in: upstart (Ubuntu)
     Assignee: (unassigned) => Dimitri John Ledkov (xnox)

** Summary changed:

- New upstart jobs are not detected in a P to T upgrade
+ php5-fpm upstart job is not compatible with precise upstart

** Package changed: upstart (Ubuntu) => php5 (Ubuntu)

Title:
  php5-fpm upstart job is not compatible with precise upstart

Status in “php5” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  After upgrading a server from 12.04 to trusty, I noticed the php-fpm
  service would not start.

  Running sudo service php-fpm, the following message was shown:

  “Unknown job: php5-fpm”

  Following the workaround here [1] and commenting out the "reload
  signal USR2" line in /etc/init/php5-fpm.conf fixed the issue.
