[Bug 1505473] Re: pollen does not start on boot

[Robie Basak]

** Description changed:

+ [User Impact]
+ 
+ pollen operators must maintain a delta on /etc/init/pollen.conf in order
+ to maintain a pollen service that restarts on boot.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+ 1. apt-get install pollen
+ 2. reboot
+ 3. status pollen
+ 
+ Expected results: pollen service running
+ Actual results: pollen service stopped
+ 
+ 4. start pollen  # if stopped from failure of above case, otherwise just leave running
+ 5. telinit 1
+ 6. status pollen
+ 
+ Expected results: pollen service stopped
+ Actual results: pollen service running
+ 
+ [Development Fix]
+ 
+ Fix typo in /etc/init/pollen.conf
+ 
+ [Stable Fix]
+ 
+ Fix typo in /etc/init/pollen.conf. Note conffile change = potential
+ conffile prompt, but I don't think that's a problem here.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+ If there is a regression it will be in the behaviour of stopping and
+ starting the service. Canonical IS is the only known user of pollen and
+ are active on this bug. Other unknown users may receive a conffile
+ prompt if they have worked around the issue, but in any case I don't see
+ how this fix would regress behaviour.
+ 
+ [Original Description]
+ 
  ubuntu at keeton:~$ lsb_release -rc
  Release:        14.04
  Codename:       trusty
  ubuntu at keeton:~$ dpkg-query -W pollen
  pollen  4.11-0ubuntu1
  ubuntu at keeton:~$ _
  
  pollen does not start on boot, due to an error in the upstart config:
  
- ubuntu at keeton:~$ grep start /etc/init/pollen.conf 
+ ubuntu at keeton:~$ grep start /etc/init/pollen.conf
  start on start on runlevel [2345]
  stop on start on runlevel [!2345]
-         # Ensure our device exists, and is a character device, before starting our server
+         # Ensure our device exists, and is a character device, before starting our server
  ubuntu at keeton:~$ _
  
  Deleting the second "start on" in each line seems to fix this.

** Changed in: pollen (Ubuntu Trusty)
       Status: Triaged => In Progress
