Description Yu Watanabe 2015-09-17 05:48:23 UTC
Description of problem:

When systemd-journal-remote.service stops, the socket entered failed state (see below). So, it is necessary to restart the socket if we want to restart.
This problem also hits when we update systemd. When updating systemd, 'systemctl daemon-reexec' command is called in the post-script. This restarts only services, not sockets. So after the updating process, systemd-journal-remote.service is in the failed state.

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

systemd-219-24.fc22.x86_64

How reproducible:

Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. systemctl restart systemd-journal-remote.service

or

1. systemctl start systemd-journal-remote.service
2. dnf update systemd

Actual results:

systemd[1]: Stopping Journal Remote Sink Service...
systemd[1]: systemd-journal-remote.socket: Got POLLHUP on a listening socket. The service probably invoked shutdown() on it, and should better not do that.
systemd[1]: Unit systemd-journal-remote.socket entered failed state.
systemd[1]: Started Journal Remote Sink Service.
systemd[1]: Starting Journal Remote Sink Service...
systemd[1]: systemd-journal-remote.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
systemd[1]: Unit systemd-journal-remote.service entered failed state.
systemd[1]: systemd-journal-remote.service failed.

Expected results:

systemd-journal-remote.service can restart.

Additional info:

A workaround of this bug is putting the following line in /usr/lib/systemd/system/systemd-journal-remote.socket
%%%%%%%%%
PartOf=systemd-journal-remote.service
%%%%%%%%%
This restarts the socket when restarting the service.
