[Bug 1448924] Re: watchdogd doesn't start on boot

[David Kowis]

Sorry for the noise on this bug! It turns out I'm simply not waiting
long enough for it to come up. It is being started on boot, and
everything is working like I expect, just isn't showing up.


I do still have the question about when it'll make it into a Xenial-updates repo, though.

Thanks, and again sorry for the bug noise.

Title:
  watchdogd doesn't start on boot

Status in watchdog package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu 15.04
  Release:	15.04

  watchdog:
    Installed: 5.14-3
    Candidate: 5.14-3
    Version table:
   *** 5.14-3 0
          500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid/universe amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  Expected:

  Watchdog daemon starts on system boot.

  Current:

  After updating from Utopic to Vivid the watchdog daemon doesn't start. A manual service watchdog start after boot up starts the daemon normally.
  There seems to be a problem with the transition of the init scripts from Upstart to SystemD.
