Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 693500
chkconfig --list does not match systemctl is-enabled
Last modified: 2014-03-16 23:27:14 EDT
Description of problem: I was confused while trying to figure out why the avahi-daemon service was not starting at boot. chkconfig told me it was enabled: # chkconfig --list avahi-daemon Note: This output shows SysV services only and does not include native systemd services. SysV configuration data might be overriden by native systemd configuration. avahi-daemon 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off But the service was not starting at boot. After reading through bug 647831, I tried the new systemctl command: # systemctl is-enabled avahi-daemon.service || echo avahi disabled avahi disabled A quick 'systemctl enable avahi-daemon.service' and reboot got avahi-daemon up and running. Please make chkconfig --list show the actual enabled/disabled status of the service. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): chkconfig-1.3.51-1.fc15.x86_64 systemd-22-1.fc15.x86_64 avahi-0.6.29-1.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. systemctl disable avahi-daemon.service 2. chkconfig --list avahi-daemon Actual results: avahi-daemon 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off Expected results: avahi-daemon 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off Additional info:
That comment is there for a reason. It's a non-trivial change, and is not scheduled for Fedora 15.
Maybe it's just me, but I read the first part of the notice "This output shows SysV services only" and I thought, "Well, chkconfig is showing avahi-daemon, so that must mean it is a SysV service and thus the output is authoritative." The second part of the notice -- that it might be overridden by a systemd config -- didn't click with me at first. Re-wording the notice to make the "systemd can override this" part more prominent might help the transition to systemd. For example: Note: This output shows SysV services only and does not include native systemd services. Note: native systemd services can override SysV configuration. See the systemctl(1) man page and /etc/systemd/system/*.wants/*.service Note: See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SysVinit_to_Systemd_Cheatsheet Or maybe it's just me...
No, it's reasonable to work on the wording. Will have to check the translation status during the string freeze.
Can't change the wording now; it will break translations. However, I did commit the following. http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=chkconfig.git;a=commitdiff;h=55c0f3e082a3531974f83278fc2c1e0f85897ac1 This makes chkconfig not show anything in --list for services overridden by systemd files; it will still print the warning. Hopefully this will be less confusing.
chkconfig-1.3.52-1.fc15 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 15. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/chkconfig-1.3.52-1.fc15
I can confirm the new chkconfig successfully hides avahi-daemon: $ sudo chkconfig --list | grep avahi Note: This output shows SysV services only and does not include native systemd services. SysV configuration data might be overridden by native systemd configuration. $
