This error results from the systemd unit file /usr/lib/systemd/system/bareos-fd.service It contains the lines: Requires=var-run.mount nss-lookup.target network.target remote-fs.target syslog.target time-sync.target After=var-run.mount nss-lookup.target network.target remote-fs.target syslog.target time-sync.target Since Fedora 17 the systemd unit var-run.mount was dropped, /var/run is now a symlink to /run. It was a bind-mount before (<= F16) which was done by the unit var-run.mount. (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=825466) As Fedora 16 is EOL, we should remove var-run.mount from the systemd unit file: --- /tmp/bareos-fd.service.orig 2013-01-25 12:16:30.648723718 +0100 +++ /usr/lib/systemd/system/bareos-fd.service 2013-01-25 12:16:48.762723872 +0100 @@ -13,8 +13,8 @@ # [Unit] Description=Bareos File Daemon service -Requires=var-run.mount nss-lookup.target network.target remote-fs.target syslog.target time-sync.target -After=var-run.mount nss-lookup.target network.target remote-fs.target syslog.target time-sync.target +Requires=nss-lookup.target network.target remote-fs.target syslog.target time-sync.target +After=nss-lookup.target network.target remote-fs.target syslog.target time-sync.target # Wants= # Before= # Conflicts= |

Tested the f17 packages: bareos-fd starts there, no need to action here. Modification shall only take affect for fedora >= 18. |
|
Keep in mind that generic systemd files are used from platforms/systemd so you should only change those on Fedora 18 probably with a sed in either the rpm or in the specfile for that specific platform. |
|
The test on f17 obviously only worked because the test system is not updated. The recent version of the systemd packaged does not have the var-run.mount unit: [stephand@t420 17]$ rpm -qpl systemd-44-8.fc17.x86_64.rpm | fgrep var-run.mount /usr/lib/systemd/system/local-fs.target.wants/var-run.mount /usr/lib/systemd/system/var-run.mount [stephand@t420 17]$ [stephand@t420 17]$ rpm -qpl systemd-44-23.fc17.x86_64.rpm | fgrep var-run.mount [stephand@t420 17]$ then it does not work: [root@f17tst01 ~]# rpm -q systemd systemd-44-23.fc17.x86_64 [root@f17tst01 ~]# rpm -q bareos-fd bareos-fd-12.4.0-71.1.x86_64 [root@f17tst01 ~]# /etc/init.d/bareos-fd start Starting bareos-fd (via systemctl): Failed to issue method call: Unit var-run.mount failed to load: No such file or directory. See system logs and 'systemctl status var-run.mount' for details. [FAILED] So this should be fixed for fedora >= 17 and also for the other unit files bareos-sd.service and bareos-dir.service openSUSE keeps having var-run.mount unit, even the latest factory systemd package has it. This should be fixed at rpm build time. Fixing with sed in a rpm post-install script is not a good idea as this will lead to showing the files as changed with rpm --verify. Although I don't know much about systemd, I dare to say we should get rid of the "Requires" line if possible because https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Systemd?rd=Packaging:Guidelines:Systemd suggests to avoid "Requires" if it is not really necesary. I Could not find that for openSUSE, but they also refer to the Fedora Guidelines, and common packages on openSUSE don't have "Requires". |
|
Maybe import systemd files from http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=bacula.git;a=tree which is the fedora repo if that also works on Suse. | |
Stephan is right: On an updated f17 the client fails, too. I've run the intergration test after a yum -y update It shows the same behavior as on f18: /etc/init.d/bareos-fd status Failed to issue method call: Unit var-run.mount failed to load: No such file or directory. See system logs and 'systemctl status var-run.mount' for details. --------- starting services ---------- Starting bareos-fd (via systemctl): [FEHLGESCHLAGEN] ---- service status --- bareos-fd.service - Bareos File Daemon service Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/bareos-fd.service; disabled) Active: inactive (dead) CGroup: name=systemd:/system/bareos-fd.service [SSH] exit-status: 3 |
|
As we write the pidfile to /var/lib/bacula there is no reason to have the dependency on the var-run.mount target so I will remove it. | |
