Rowland,

I've been having trouble getting SSSD to compile correctly on Ubuntu 12.04. Would you mind listing the commands you used to successfully compile 1.10.1? I'm assuming you downloaded the tarball from the sssd website?

Thanks.

Hi, I run sssd on Linux Mint 15, I received and installed a raft of
sssd updates today. I immediately lost the ability to connect to the
domain.
The problem was that whilst there was a sssd.pid in /var/run/ ps ax
didn't show any sssd programs and if you tried to restart sssd, it
just hung. The machine would not turn off, you had to hold the power
button to stop it.
In the end I downloaded 1.10.1 and compiled & installed it over the
installed sssd, everything now works again.

Sounds like something to bring up in your distribution bug tracker?

What version did you upgrade to (and from) that was broken? Maybe you hit
some bug that was fixed later.

Ok, I am not sure what exact ubuntu version of sssd I had, it was
1.9.4-something, Ubuntu issued a raft of sssd updates

libipa-hbac-dev     libipa-hbac0     libnss-sss     libpam-sss
libsss-idmap0     libsss-sudo     python-libipa-hbac     python-sss
sssd-tools

I ended up with version 1.9.4-0ubuntu4.2

Before the updates, sssd worked perfectly, after the update, sssd
did not work at all, my pc hung and when I did get back in as a
local user, the domain was not visible. Downloading 1.10.1,
compiling and installing over the installed sssd packages cured the
problem, so the cause must have been the update.

I think the relevant ubuntu bug is 903752, this refers to
'libpwquality' for which a certain 'Timo Aaltonen' provided an
update for on the 9/7/2013 and 'Adam Conrad' finally released the
fix on 24/8/13, this fix hit my pc on 27/8/13 and made my pc
unusable.

I do not have an account at ubuntu to report the bug, so I thought
that I would cut out the monkeys and come direct to the organ
grinder ;-) , could you please get 'Timo Aaltonen' to talk to 'Adam
Conrad' and sort out the problem.

Thanks

Rowland
I can certainly CC Timo and ask him if this is something that rings a
bell :-)
First time I hear about this. All the update did was fix a path on the
apparmor profile, assuming you were running 1.9.4-0ubuntu4.1. And I know
nothing about Mint.

903752 has nothing to do with this, it's just a meta-bug about moving
sssd in the 'main' repository, making it officially supported and
available to the installer and such in the future.


Hi, all I can say is that about 17:45 GMT yesterday, I allowed a list of sssd updates to go ahead, I use Linux Mint 15 but as this is based on Ubuntu 13.04 the updates came from Ubuntu. I left it to update and when I came back, the screensaver had kicked in and could not get back in. I had to power off the machine by pressing and holding the power button. When I did get the machine to restart, all the domain users had seemingly gone. I finally traced the fault to the fact that sssd had crashed, hung, call it what you will, it had a pid but did not shown in 'ps ax'. I tried to purge sssd but could not, the terminal just hung and in the end I had to power off the computer again. I had to download and install 1.10.1 over the already installed sssd packages, force-ably power off the machine again and restart. Everything now worked just like before the update, ergo it must have been the update that was at fault.
