Description Alain Knaff 2011-04-27 16:24:24 UTC
Description of problem:

Shutdown on Fedora15 always hangs

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

systemd-25-1.fc15.i686


How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install mysql on your system
2. Shutdown
3.
  
Actual results:

It hangs while stopping mysql

Expected results:

It should continue, shutting down the next service, and eventually power off the machine. If a password is indeed needed (why? we are shutting down the system!), it should prompt the user with instructions how to enter it (just typing it "blindly" doesn't work)

Additional info:

It seems that /etc/init.d/functions is calling systemd to stop services, which invokes systemd-tty-ask-password-agent, which just hangs...

Other services seem to hang as well on shutdown, so just installing mysqld (or stopping it manually) doesn't solve (or rather, work around...) the issue...

Basically, this bug forces to always do an unclean "shutdown" with the power button, and that's the reason why I rated it high.
