The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

["Lorenz, Sabine (SCC)" <address@concealed>]

Dear all,

 

does anyone have experience in Sympa Version 6.1.23~dfsg-2 as Debian package on a Debian GNU/Linux 8 server?

 

After installing Sympa 6.1.23 as package on a Debian Jessie server we noticed that there was no systemd-command in postinst-script and that sympa was not enabled (we expected something like systemctl enable sympa in the scripts and couldn’t find a systemd-file in the upstream code).

So we had to enable it manually.
Did anyone have the same problem? Is that a bug in Debian package or is it a fault on our part?

 

Additionally we see messages in /var/log/daemon.log after every reboot that show that initially sympa can’t be started by systemd because the mysql database is not reachable.

I suppose that these messages occur because the database is not started before.

On our productive Server (Debian Squeeze and Sympa 6.0.1+dfsg-4+squeeze3) we use start-scripts in /etc/init.d we to start the daemons and the database is started first and the sympa daemon is started after the database.

Shouldn‘t this also be the same order in systemd? Should there be an entry like „after mysql“ in /lib/systemd/system/sympa.service?

Or is it ok and normal that Sympa is started first in systemd and  that we have this messages in /var/log/daemon.log after every reboot ?

 

Thank you very much for any hints,

Sabine Lorenz
